The Well Digger's Daughter Poster (La Fille Du Puisatier) (2011)

Critic Reviews

• Andrew L. Urban, Urban Cinefile

  A film to enjoy away from the noise and chaos of most movies on offer, and while not relevant in some ways, certainly relevant as a note about the strengths and weaknesses of human nature

• Don Groves, sbs.com.au

  Auteuil shines in bucolic French melodrama about filial love and forgiveness.

• Frederic and Mary Ann Brussat, Spirituality and Practice

  A tour de force remake of Marcel Pagnol's 1940 film about love, loss, class, forgiveness, and transformation that come from the heart.

• David Jenkins, Time Out New York

  [An] inauspicious but cheerfully populist directorial debut.
