Moved on to Tire-au-flanc which I discovered contained German subtitles so I was hopelessly lost. I attempted to read both French and German titles in the hope that between the two languages I could figure it out. Of course I can't find much of a plot synopsis here (this will change when I consult my Renoir book) so I barely feel like I saw the film. Renoir's sense of humor was coming through a bit in this film and Michel Simon is a delight as usual. I also noticed that in addition to not being able to understand the intertitles there happened to be a shitload of them. Anyways I just hope the next film I can read.
