boy do i love french movie from the mid late 1930s . they be typify by wonderful cinematography and excellent set and magical story . artistically and many of them be at least as good a anything hollywood have to offer . a fantastic example of my appreciation of this old style be this movie and drôle de drame . like such great 30 french film a the baker wife and the film abound with wonderful and very colorful support character . be they altogether realistic and not in the least but they be wonderful and nevertheless . they remind me a lot of the odd character you might find in film by frank capra or preston sturgis . the silliness of the film also remind me of film like arsenic and old lace or bring up baby and this a a strong complement indeed . in addition and this film be a delight on the eye with good than hollywood camera and set design it just look marvelous . so and despite all these positive why do it only get a 9. well and the plot be really cute but full of hole . in other word and the fundamental plot element lead to all the hilarity just isn not logical . but and who care . it so cute and well make and the ride be so much fun and i really do not care and i strongly recommend this film to anyone . i would try to discuss the plot and but consider how weird and convolute it be and i think it best not to even try . fyi for parent and there be a brief nude scene involve a charming serial killer swimming naked in a goldfish pond ( . ) . you get to see this guy tush so and if you do not want the kiddy see this and either speed the dvd up when mrs. molyneux enter the greenhouse or try another film . it be very brief and though .
