Anti-semitic man bonds with Jewish boy
“The Two of Us” is a fictionalized story based on the life of director Claude Berri. When 8-year-old Jewish boy Claude (Alain Cohen), living in Nazi-occupied France, is sent by his parents to live in the country with the Catholic parents of their friends, he is faced with a religious and generational culture clash.<br /><br />Claude’s new host, Grampa Pepe (Michel Simon), is characterized by affection for his dog, his wife, and his opinionated, deep-seated prejudices. He believes World War II was started by a conspiracy of Jews, Masons, Communists, and Winston Churchill. He’s unaware that Claude is Jewish and accepts the explanation that this Catholic child has been sent by his parents to be safe in the event Paris is bombed.<br /><br />Eventually, Pepe and Claude hit it off. Claude thinks the old man’s bigoted pronouncements are funny and urges him to say stupid things about Jews. At one point, Claude states that Pepe must be a Jew, referring to his big nose as evidence. The two become the best of friends as they deal with the trials and tribulations of everyday living, endure problems caused by the war and the old man’s aging dog, and join forces in small conspiracies against Meme (Luce Fabiole), Pepe’s wife.<br /><br />As the openly anti-Semitic Grampa Pepe, character actor Michel Simon made a return to the screen after years of illness and infused the role with a gruff tenderness, his growing relationship with the boy a touching portrait of connection in a desperate time. The film has a nostalgic aura, as if it is a fondly recalled dream. Director Berri manages to use anti-Semitism as a comic device, since Pepe is really soft-hearted, and a blowhard when it comes to spouting stereotypes. With two wonderful performances, “The Two of Us” is a warm, sentimental film that avoids being maudlin because of its amusing dialogue and situations.<br /><br />Bonus materials on the unrated Blu-ray release include feature-length audio commentary and the 2017 re-release trailer. The film is in French, with English subtitles.
