«Marius» is a four-act play by Marcel Pagnol, published by Editions de Fallois in paperback (220 pages, in French).
Set in the port of Marseille in the 1920s, the play presents Marius, son of the owner of the bar de la Marine, torn between his love for Fanny, a young shellfish seller, and his desire to go to sea. The 1929 premiere and the 1931 film, co-directed by Pagnol and Alexander Korda, popularized the play's characters.
First installment of the Marseille Trilogy. The 1931 film version featured Raimu, Charpin, Orane Demazis, and Pierre Fresnay in the cast.
For students of French at B1 level or below and readers of classic French theatre.
