Bonjour l’enfant.
“Le vieil homme et l’enfant ” is the first of a series of four autobiographical movies about the director’s salad days : for the record , the three other works are : “le pistonné” (1969) “le cinéma de papa” (1970) which became a common noun to designate the old (but great) old French cinema and “la première fois” (1976 )(starring Alain Cohen ,the young star of “le vieil homme” )

The first movie is undoubtly the best and it’s sure easy to see why :It features Michel Simon ,one of the all-time greatest French actors ; by 1967,he had under his belt masterpieces by the dozen by the masters of the history of French cinema: Renoir, Duvivier,Carné ,Gance,Guitry,Decoin et al.

Once more, he shines in his part of a grumpy old man , with received ideas , who epitomizes the Marechal Pétain ‘s ideology in the occupied France; he hates the English,the Jews and the commies although he has never met one of these persons in his lifetime .

But the father (a very good Charles Denner ,who would reappear in “la première fois” ;in both middle movies,the part of the daddy was played by Yves Robert ) wants his son to be in security :in the country ,in the occupation days , French people had more food than in the cities and they stand less danger of being caught up in a round-up because they are Jews.

So the little boy must pretend he was brought up a catholic , he must know his “our father” prayer by heart: It’s all the more important since the old country man is a limited anti-Semite ;so is the entourage ,particularly the schoolteacher who has her pupils sing the petainist anthem “Marechal Nous Voila ” dutifully every morning.;and the Marechal’s portrait is to be seen here there and everywhere .

A warning tells us it’s “the occupied years seen through a child’s eye” ,a child who does not understand the plight man’s madness put them in.

The boy/old man relationship is extraordinary -and you’ll shed a tear for their companion,the good old dog-It’s double initiation rites: not only the boy has to discover an unknown milieu ,but he embarrasses his protector with naive (but relevant) questions about Jesus (so his daddy was a Jew, wasn’t he?)which lead the narrow-minded person to question himself .He will see the others differently when the war is over.
