Les vieux de la vieille
Comedy90 min
Three old friends leave their village for a retirement home, and the move turns into a wandering trip across the French countryside. Jean Gabin and Pierre Fresnay are part of the trio at the center of the story, with the film following their departure from familiar routines into a journey shaped by age, friendship, and the frictions of starting over. Built as a comedy, it keeps its focus on these men and the road between where they have been living and where they are meant to end up.
