Wissenswertes

Nais is a 1945 French romantic drama film directed by Raymond Leboursier and produced by Marcel Pagnol. It stars comedian Fernandel in one of his dramatic roles. The script was written by Pagnol based on the short story Naïs Micoulin, by Émile Zola.

Production

Naïs was Pagnol's return to filmmaking after World War II. The Nazi occupation of France had caused the near-collapse of Pagnol's production system: Pagnol even had to destroy the copies of his latest film project, La Prière aux étoiles, so the German-controlled Continental Films could not get hold of it.

It was also the first film made by Pagnol with actress Jacqueline Bouvier, whom he married later the same year and who went on to star in his next films under the name Jacqueline Pagnol.
