When the best Airmail pilot Henri Guillaumet disappears in the Andes, his best friend Antoine de Saint-Exupéry decides to go in search of him against all odds. The Little Prince was in every house, so the author’s story was awaited with excitement. The story concerns the period when his childhood friend Gillaumet worked for the post office between Argentina and Chile. So far, everything is fine. They are childhood friends and are the same age. Now the problem arises when they get older, the age difference is almost 20 years. So here is my criticism. Why do they take Cassal at 57 to play a 29-year-old? Saint Ex should be 30, played by a 41-year-old, it is still fine. Diane Krueger was chosen to fit Cassal’s age. Does the French film industry have no young actors? So the choice of actors, although good actors, was bad. The pictures were great, but the scenes on the plane were unrealistic!
