De witte (1934)
Nostalgic feelings

As an other comment indicates, "De Witte" is a book that every young boy used to read in the days of the 60ties & 70ties, though i doubt it that many teenagers nowadays still know it. I read the book (or some favorite chapters) over and over again and every time it brought some laughter and joy in my day. The first time i saw the film, it was a big disappointment, as it could not match by far the images that were stored in my mind as a child. i later understood that it was of course a personal interpretation of the book and that making a film in Belgium in 1934 was not an easy thing. Seeing the film again is pure nostalgic, but the book was far better !
