The Two of Us

Le vieil homme et l'enfant

A comically bittersweet coming of age story, THE TWO OF US is also a poignant drama of identity and heritage. When an 8-year-old Jewish boy 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 culture clash both religious and generational.

Winner of three prizes, including Best Actor (Michel Simon) at the Berlin International Film Festival.

"A lovely, sentimental reminiscence of childhood in wartime." - Renata Adler, The New York Times
