Bonjour, nos amis! Auteur Jean Renoir's beloved French classic is the subject of the Next 163 Project. This is the rare film that actually gets better as it goes along. Jolly Renoir himself is a big highlight in this large cast of "Upstairs, Downstairs" characters. His picture was hated by his countrymen upon release 80 years ago, partly because it mocks the upper class who are oblivious to what's going on around them (ie. the impending real-life war). For this film to elicit hatred says a lot about how thin-skinned the human race is. Anyway, fly your plane across an ocean and then plant yourself directly in the Friend Zone as you fire up our tongue waggle. Why? Well, everyone has their reasons.

The French would approve of you buying a lot of Sparkplug Coffee (Cafe?), so do that. The 20% discount they'll give you by using our promo code ("top100project") definitely still applies.
