Paix sur les Champs (1970)

I started off liking Paix sur les Champs very much, but then as it went on, I think it became more and more conventional.

Jacques Boigelot's film was ok, but not great. It starts off as a portrait of a town, the young people who move around in it, and the influence of the older generation, but it sort of devolves from there as it gets overwhelmed with plot.

This film has been out of print in the United States for a long time, as far as I can tell, but I was able to see it finally here.
