POPULAIRE (2012)
RéGIS ROINSARD
Plot
Rose Pamphyle is kept firmly in check by her father. He has arranged her engagement to a local mechanic and the girl seems destined to pass from the control of one man to another on her wedding day. However, when Rose travels to Lisieux in Normandy another opportunity presents itself. Though her interview for a secretarial job goes disastrously, she makes the acquaintance of a charismatic manager called Louis Echard, who, impressed by her natural abilities at the keyboard, appoints himself her trainer for a speed typing competition. A charming, stylised…and very Gallic comedy drama.
