The only reason I saw this film was because it featured in the book 1001 Movies You Must See Before You Die. It should be said firstly that it is only just under forty minutes because director Jean Renoir cancelled filming, due to incessant rainy days, and they had only two scenes left to complete the film, but the incomplete scenes are filled with captions. So, anyway it is basically the family of a Parisian shop-owner spending a day in the country, like the title says. There is a daughter that falls for a man from an inn, and they spend time together, and then (after a caption) she is married, but it may not be to right person (or whatever). That's about it. It's short, but sufficient enough. Good, in my opinion!
