There was a lot of sincerity in this film about the life of the southern farmer, it's a gem.

David Thomson's dictionary of film asserts that this is one of Renoir's masterpieces; I'm not so sure. Visual poetry to spare, to be sure, but it lacks the engagement with character that defines Renoir's French films.

i like : Jean Renoir anyway The Southerner (1945) is a film directed by Jean Renoir, based on the novel Hold Autumn in Your Hand by George Sessions Perry. The film received Oscar nominations for Best Director, Original Music Score and Sound. Renoir was named Best Director by the National Board of Review, which also named the film the third best of 1945. It stars Zachary Scott, Betty Field, J. Carrol Naish, Beulah Bondi, Percy Kilbride, Charles Kemper, Blanche Yurka, and Norman Lloyd. Future director Robert Aldrich was an assistant director on this film.

Jean Renoir is perhaps the greatest of all film directors. He is certainly the most lovable.

A strong, naturalistic portrait of a group of people not often given their due in the golden age of Hollywood, The Southerner follows a poor farming family through a year of trials, perseverance, and undying hope. Renoir presents the main characters without irony and with a focus on the land which both sustains them as well as frustrates their efforts. The story itself is simple and episodic, but Renoir is seeking to capture a time, place, and people, which he does quite well.
