English titles: The Two of Us; The Old Man and the Boy
During World War II in occupied France, a Jewish boy is sent by his parents to live in the country with a Catholic family. They are not told the boy is Jewish. The old man, who is an anti-Semite, develops an affection towards the boy, and vice versa.
This fictionalization of true events in the filmmaker's childhood is touching yet a bit monotonous. The actors are very good in this.
