Best.-Nr. 2469To Mr. E. Fasquelle editor Pagnol writes about film. "I had two parts in my film. One where I had my characters speak. The other where I left that to the cinematography and to Honnegger's sic music. The musical segments are very boring I am told. I am in the process of cutting out as many as I can but it is a delicate thing because of Honnegger sic who is a charming lad." He signs in full "Marcel Pagnol" then adds a note about having received payment. Pagnol most likely refers to his 1937 film "Regain" "Harvest" for which Swiss composer Arthur Honegger composed the music. The Marius trilogy Marius Fanny and Cesar filmed between 1931 and 1936 are viewed as Pagnol's most important cinematic contribution. unknown books
