Movie Info

Spring, 1958: 21-year-old Rose Pamphyle lives with her grouchy widower father who runs the village store. Engaged to the son of the local mechanic, she seems destined for the quiet, drudgery-filled life of a housewife. But that's not the life Rose longs for. When she travels to Lisieux in Normandy, where charismatic insurance agency boss Louis Echard is advertising for a secretary, the ensuing interview is a disaster. But Rose reveals a special gift - she can type at extraordinary speed.

Far more energetic, vibrant and exciting than a subtitled French film about typing in the late '50s has any right to be, Populaire is hugely charming and genuinely funny.

Somewhat disappointingly, the social and sexual commentary is sidelined by the film's typing competition-focused action - admittedly handled with real aplomb - and is otherwise buried beneath the inarguably beautiful period dressing.

Audience Reviews for Populaire

La pire bouze de l'année. Dialogues nullisimes et sans épaisseur. Acteurs limites.
Le rythme y est plus mou qu'une motte de beurre en plein cagnard.
Affligeant de nullité.
