Le facteur s'en va-t-en guerre

Le facteur s'en va-t-en guerre is a 1966 French war drama directed by Claude Bernard-Aubert, adapted from the novel by Gaston-Jean Gautier. As its title suggests, the story centers on a postman who is drawn into the war. Running about 95 minutes, the film features an ensemble cast that includes Charles Aznavour, Michel Galabru, Pierre Mondy, Daniel Ceccaldi, Jess Hahn, Franco Fabrizi and Helmuth Schneider. It stands among the relatively early directorial works of Bernard-Aubert, who would go on to a long career in French cinema, and is counted among the French productions of the period that deal with wartime themes through the lens of an ordinary civilian caught up in the conflict.
