The Baker's Wife is a 1938 French comedic drama film directed by Marcel Pagnol and featuring an ensemble cast lead by Raimu, Ginette Leclerc, and Fernand Charpin. It was adapted by Pagnol from a episode of French author Jean Giono's 1932 novel Blue Boy. In the film, the new baker in a Provençal village loses the will to bake after his wife runs off with a handsome shepherd, so, to regain their daily bread, the feuding villagers agree to put aside their bickering and work together to bring back the baker's wife.
