Not far from the ramparts of Saint-Paul-de-Vence is the Miette, the small house rented by Jacques Prévert and his wife Janine in the 1940s before they moved in their L'Ormeau property, at the exit of the village, until the mid-1950s. From 1941 and for fifteen years, Jacques Prévert found in Saint-Paul-de-Vence a refuge far from the capital. There he rubbed shoulders with Picasso and the greatest artists of his time, while exercising his talents as a poet and screenwriter and dialogue writer for the cinema at the Victorine studios in Nice. His presence attracted other film personalities to Saint-Paul, such as directors Henri-Georges Clouzot and André Cayatte.
