Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })A Day in the Country (Partie de campagne) is a 1936 short film (40 minutes) directed by Jean Renoir.M. Dufour, who owns a Paris dairy business, takes his family for a country outing. Said family consists of his wife Mme. Dufour, his grandmother, his daughter Henriette, and his assistant Anatole, who has been designated to marry Henriette and one day take over the dairy business. They stop off at the country inn of one Poulain (Jean Renoir), and have a picnic.Poulain's rambunctious young workers, Rodolphe and Henri, take an immediate interest in the two attractive women. Henri says he'd prefer getting with the mother as it would be no strings attached, while sex with the daughter would run the risk of both pregnancy and emotional attachment. As it happens, however, Henri does form a rapport with Henriette, one which leads to an unexpected emotional attachement.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })Origininally intended as a feature, but delayed and then halted when Renoir moved on to other projects like The Grand Illusion. Finally released as a 40-minute film in 1946.

Distant Finale: A title card tells us that "years passed" and Henriette got married to Anatole before her last bittersweet meeting with Henri.

City Mouse: The country people make fun of the city slickers. One of them notes that the fish in the river taste like oil now that the factory has opened upstream. Poulain says "Serve it to the Parisians; they'll love it."

Buxom Beauty Standard: Poulain says he prefers well-rounded women like Mme. Dufour rather than her slender daughter. ("More to hold on to.")

All Women Are Lustful: Mme. Dufour only goes off on her boating trip with the young men after her husband, who wants a nap, rebuffs her requests for sex. And Henriette gives in to Henri very quickly.
