Alphonse Daudet's short stories were tailor made for a Provençal director such as Pagnol. If you go to Provence, you can visit the windmill where Daudet was supposed to write his "letters." Actually, he never lived in this place, but in the castle of some of his friends near the legendary mill. However, it's true that most of the stories which were included in "Lettres de Mon Moulin" are true stories. Daudet was told about Maitre Cornille, Mr. Seguin's goat and others by peasants and shepherds he met in his walks across the hills.
