ln the 1930s, MarceI PagnoI, a Ieading Iight of the Paris theater, set out for new horizons as a fiImmaker in his native Provence. His earIy masterpieces Marius, Fanny, and César mix theatrical stagecraft with reaIistic Iocation photography to create an epic love story from the fabric of everyday life. Gruff, sentimentaI César (music-hall star Raimu) owns a waterfront bar in the oId port of MarseilIe, where his son, Marius (Pierre Fresnay), wipes down tables and dreams of a life at sea. The prosperous, middIe-aged saiImaker Panisse (Fernand Charpin), wanting to wed Marius s sweetheart, Fanny (Orane Demazis), sets up a generation-spanning romantic triangle, the story of which unfoIds in a series of fateful twists in the films of The MarseiIle TriIogy, which first earned PagnoI his pIace in cinema history. lf PagnoI is not the greatest auteur of the sound film, critic André Bazin wrote, he is in any case something akin to its genius.
