Prévert non è antico, non è sentimentale, non è decadente. Prévert è vivissimo come un adolescente d'oggi. Nonostante Prévert sembri a tratti classico, isuoi versi prefigurano la liberazione sessuale delle nuove generazioni, quellail cui amore vince l'invidia dei vecchi, l'indignazione dei benpensanti eperfino la miseria e la guerra.

Sul fondo si annida la malinconia di ogni amore, ricchezza splendida mafragile; da custodire teneramente.
