JEAN RENOIR , with the aid of his miniature theatre, introduces four anecdotes which he found amusing and hopes the viewer will like. The first is dedicated to Hans Christian Andersen and concerns a most unusual Christmas dinner. A modern opera depicts man's struggle with machines; Jeanne Moreau sings-a little faultily - ' When Love Dies' and the last story is a tribute to tolerance.
