The Chicken Coop

There have been few films that have moved me like 'Bread and Chocolate'. The scene involving the outcast immigrants, living in the wretched hen house, starts off rather comical--even absurd. Then, with the arrival of the nymph-like youths, it takes a serious heart-breaking turn. Bizet's somber Adagio in C underscores this emotional scene. It's an amazing moment, where you want to laugh one minute, and cry the next!
