"L'amour existe" or "Love exists" is a black-and-white documentary from the year 1960. It's a French production written and directed by Maurice Pialat and runs for approximately 20 minutes. This little film takes us into the world of France around the early 1960s. We see what it is like to live there, what the little pleasures of the people are and what the country was like in general. This is a pretty general description, but let me assure you the narrator goes into detail. I just don't want to do so as well, so you will still feel the magic when watching this one. I think the script manages it very well to turn this into an informative as well as personal watch and that's a good achievement. It gets slightly worse in the second half, but I still believe it's a fairly good watch as a whole. And it was sure fun to listen to Jean-Loup Reynold's narration. Pialat did a pretty good job here and looking at how it's an early career effort, this is even more impressive as he was still fairly young here. Rest in peace and thanks for this artistic achievement here, Monsieur Piavat.
