I had to get used to the slow tempo at first, but once I did and the delightful kiddies grew on me, I loved it. How valuable the individual attention is that the kids get from their teacher in this small class! Really touching.

You never take my advice regarding French movies, but you do trust Elsbeth’s judgment.

This films moves a notch up on my ‘to see’ list.

Hehehe Peuple migrateur wasn’t “tranquilizing” it was coma-inducing But great fun nonetheless!

Well you woke from that coma pretty quick then didn’t you Anyway, it must’ve been the right pace for the 70-year-old-by-average audience that crowded the Hilversum film theatre that night

Yup so I did. But mind you, it has taken me years of sleeping-in-the-cinema training to be able to pull such a feat. Maybe I should start a section on popcorn with the name: films I slept through

Yeah, but you do sleep through the best of movies as well, so whether you fell asleep or not is not really relevant in establishing the movie’s quality

It sure is! The better the movie the better I sleep

Those kids are A D O R A B L E. It must have taken ages to get the kids to feel this familiar about having a camera pointed at them. But it certainly paid off.
