Claude Autant-Lara – La jument verte AKA The Green Mare (1959) (HD)
A feud between families in 1870’s rural France.
A few years after their successful collaboration on La Traversée de Paris (1956), director Claude Autant-Lara and the popular comic actor Bourvil worked together on this light-hearted farce, based on a best-selling novel by Marcel Aymé. One of Autant-Lara’s more cheerful films, La Jument verte benefits from an exceptionally talented cast, which includes such big names as Francis Blanche, Yves Robert, Georges Wilson and Marie Déa, as well as the great Bourvil (who, needless to say, gives great value). In contrast to many popular French comedies of this period, the film had a substantial budget and consequentially exceptional production values, not least of which is the sumptuous colour photography. Although not quite as controversial as some of Autant-Lara’s earlier films, some of the jokes do come close to the limit of what was acceptable at the time, and the film’s risqué trailer was banned for an under-eighteen audience.
