"Monsieur Fabre" is the 50 years story of an entomologist (and his family), constantly studying insects by inventing experiences. Far ahead of its time as a teacher, he is confronted to obsolete classic hierarchy when learning his pupils the flowers sexuality and crushes his hierarchy : in that sequence, Pierre Fresnay surpasses himself. Henri Diamant Berger and Pierre Fresnay succeeded in a brilliant biopic, Fresnay created a great character living a fantastic human adventure. "Monsieur Fabre" deserves recognition.
