Marcel Paul Pagnol (/pəˈnjɒl,pæ-/, also US: /pɑːˈnjɔːl/pah-NYAWL;[1]French:[maʁsɛlpɔlpaɲɔl]; 28 February 1895 – 18 April 1974) was a French novelist, playwright, and filmmaker. Regarded as an auteur,[2] in 1946, he became the first filmmaker elected to the Académie française. Although his work is less fashionable than it once was, Pagnol is still generally regarded as one of France's greatest 20th-century writers and is notable for the fact that he excelled in almost every medium—memoir, novel, drama and film.
