Title: History of French Cinema - Jean-Pierre Jeancolas - book
Summary :
The cinematic spectacle was born one evening in December 1895. Then the film industry quickly developed, long before it was established as an art form. The history of French cinema is therefore that of popular entertainment, an industry, and an art form.
In an attempt to account for this, this book traces the broad outlines of the adventure of the "seventh art," evoking the creation of production studios and major directors, from Méliès to Pialat or Garrel, from L'Herbier to Bresson or Godard, via Vigo, Clair or Renoir. It is in this profusion of works that a possible history of French cinema is written.
Enriched with illustrations and updated, this paperback edition also offers a new chapter devoted to the dynamism of a young French cinema with multiple awards, from the 2010s to the 2023 Palme d'Or awarded to director Justine Triet.
