Whether you are a woman or a man, materialistic and romantic, optimistic or pessimistic, we were all a children's day, and sometimes this blessed period back to the surface memories more or less vague, more or less pleasant, snatches of time that does not want to die feeling, evanescent fragrance not entirely wiped out by the time vortex.
During my teenage years and young adulthood, when I tried remember the sweet emotions of my childhood, I often returned inaccurate but captivating image of two young girls walking down the surface of the roof of the Paris Opera in an immaculate sky. This unusual vision was tenacious. Had I dreamed? I decided one day to make targeted research, using books and the Internet on the series created in the 60s and 70s because I was increasingly convinced that this "vision" came from a soap opera probably saw during my childhood. My searches were successful when I fell on DVD catalog company Koba Films / Memory TV on DVD reissues that major French television serials heritage. On the cover of the series Age happy I finally saw the image of these two little girls on the roof of the Palais Garnier that haunted me for years! I rushed to buy it and review it. The emotion was very strong in finding the protagonists of this poetic history: all these bits of diffuse sensations finally materialized in my "small window".
Among beautiful images television of my childhood that peopled my imagination forever ...

| Odette Joyeux |
The series Age pleased was written by Odette Joyeux ( old little rat of the Opera and plays the role of the mother of the little Delphine ), directed by Philippe Agostini and distributed into 8 slices 26 minutes from the February 12, 1966 on the first channel of the ORTF, then rebroadcast several times in the 70s, c ' is also during these replays seventies I had to find out. He narrated the lives of young rats from the Paris Opera, learning through their difficult journey of initiation of early Delphine Nadal (played by the dreamy Delphine Desyeux ) chosen to be the first role the new ballet in preparation, and soon the victim of a plot hatched by one of his friends jealous of his talent. Delphine found himself facing a Kafkaesque dilemma (due to a lost key, fell into a pot of paint, sometimes it happens nerd in life!) And that I will not expose here in If you would like to see this program. Found in this charming story of actors who made the heyday of television such Pierre Mondy boosted by manager of the Opera, or the kind Louis Velle which portrays a musician in love with the mother of Delphine .

| Georges Auric in 1940 |
Music was signed by the great composer Georges Auric , creator of beautiful scores Jean Cocteau for (little excuse) and then Director of the Paris Opera. Some dancers are stars played themselves. Many of the drama scenes were filmed on location in the streets of the capital and is moving these days to see the rebirth of our eyes this Paris of the "golden era", the France of 1966 when everything still seemed possible, where the Urban Wildlife and "modernity" had not yet done their damage. In Age pleased smells the sweet scent of France before the crisis, France appeased view through the eyes of a child destined to be a star among stars. All that is now engraved for eternity on DVD and available to everyone! And you can measure what we've lost along the way, thinking that when French television, though much less well funded than now, yet knew we provide quality programs and we had not yet condemned to suffer the tide of American soap operas inept. This famous TV show for "thirty glorious years", which is sometimes so easy to mock, was able with three pieces of string and a lot talent to make programs full of poetry. Finally, note that with the success and multiple repeats of Age pleased , a sequel was finally completed 9 years later with the same team ( Agostini and Happy ) but not the same actors. This new creation logically named age in bloom was broadcast on TF1 in 16 episodes of 26 minutes from the February 27, 1975. I have more than a memory hazy. Why I decided to buy it on DVD also. Nostalgia, when you hold us ...
