About Firmin de Saint-Pataclet
Firmin, who returned mute from the war of 14-18, has never displeased anyone for twenty years in terms of political life where low blows, jealousy and betrayal are rife in his Provençal village. But an explosion gives him the floor.
Directed by Jacques Séverac, Firmin de Saint-Pataclet leans on a strong ensemble — Antonin Berval, Édouard Delmont, Colette Darfeuil — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about screen titles of 1938.
