The Baker's Wife	comment	The Baker's Wife (La Femme du Boulanger) is a 1938 French film directed by Marcel Pagnol. It is based on a novel by Jean Giono.The residents of a small village in Provence (South-East France) are happy when a new baker named Aimable Castanier (played by Raimu) moves in, as they had been forced to go far to get their bread before. Then Aurélie (played by Ginette Leclerc), the baker's young wife, runs off with a shepherd, and the baker loses all interest in baking.

The Baker's Wife / int_863a32bd	comment	Small Town Rivalry: Two of the villagers have a dispute about their gardens – the elms in one garden keep the sun from reaching the other. Two villagers refuse to speak to each other, but don't know why – they only know that their fathers and grandfathers weren't on speaking terms either, so they figure there must be a good reason.

The Baker's Wife / int_fad7b727	type	Fun with Foreign Languages
The Baker's Wife / int_fad7b727	comment	Fun with Foreign Languages: The baker is surprisingly incompetent at identifying the language heard during the serenade scene. Is it Piemontese, Corsican, or Arabic? This guy lives in Provence, close to Italy, he should at least be able to tell a Romance language from Arabic. Especially absurd since someone not familiar with Piemontese would probably call it Italian. Justified: as in most Pagnol films, most characters have a strong Provençal accent and non-standard grammar. They would be hard to understand for the average French man from most places (especially in the 2010s). May contribute to the "small village" feeling.
