Watch: Le Fils de l’épicier 2007 123movies, Full Movie Online – Antoine Sforza, a thirty-year-old young man, left his village ten years before in order to start a new life in the big city, but now that his father, a traveling grocer, is in hospital after a stroke, he more or less reluctantly accepts to come back to replace him in his daily rounds. Back in the village, accompanied by Claire, a young woman he loves but who hesitates to commit herself, he does the job half-satisfactorily. Too blunt, not in harmony with the locals, he offends them more than he serves them. Fortunately Claire, who has more business acumen, helps him to improve his skills. On the other hand, the relationships are tense with his brother François and even worse with his father, who despises him. So when the latter is back in the village, the situation deteriorates….

the subtle changes in tone and reflectiveness as paint dries . . .
Nicolas Cazale is an interesting actor to watch, and if you are the sort of person who finds the subtle changes in tone and reflectiveness as paint dries fascinating, you may find this sweet little movie equally absorbing.Otherwise, the flick’s chief fault is an excess of sentimental charm. The scenery in and around the French mountain village where the story takes place is gorgeous. No doubt it would be a lovely place to rent a cottage for a week or two and take long walks before curling up with a good book to stave off the boredom because the story here is much too slight to otherwise keep one occupied.
If you understand enough French to get by without looking at the subtitles, The Grocer’s Son could make for entirely tasteful images to have on the TV whilst you go about the house doing something else. Don’t worry if your French is not all that fluent. There’s still plenty of charm to fill the void left by less than scintillating dialogue.
Cazale, btw, is even more interesting playing a bad boy in Three Dancing Slaves.
