The Golden Coach
The Golden Coach is a 1952 Jean Renoir film about an 18th century Italian commedia dell'arte troupe which has traveled under contract to Peru. Expecting a large city and proper theater they find a village with no theater at all and a tradition where the royalty are insulted by requests to pay, the poor can't afford to pay, and the middle class innkeeper thinks it rude to ask his friends to pay. A lighthearted movie and fun to watch.

I'm off to watch it now. Any time Rotten Tomatoes gives that 100% fresh score, I will watch it. Thanks or the review AND the link, too.
ReplyDeleteI hope you like it!
DeleteI want to watch this as I recently found about Jean Renoir. He was the son of the famous Renoir painter too and a very respected film maker himself. And wow-I've never seen 100% on Rotten Tomatoes. Happy weekend. Hugs-Erika
ReplyDeleteIt's in the book 1001 Movies You Must See Before You Die, which is how I came across it. Renoir's films are amazing!
