Croesus

Croesus tells the story of Jules, a shepherd leading a humble and solitary life in the picturesque countryside of Provence. His quiet existence is occasionally disrupted by visits from Fine, a lonely widow who yearns to be with him. The plot takes a turn when Jules discovers an unexploded bomb in the fields, which he foolishly attempts to detonate, only to find it filled with bank notes.

This film features notable performances from a cast that includes Fernandel, Marcelle Ranson-Hervé, and Rellys among others. Their portrayals bring depth to the comedic and dramatic elements of the story, making it a compelling watch for fans of classic French cinema. Croesus reflects the charm of early 1960s filmmaking, combining humor with poignant moments.
