Maurice Pialat
One of the most gifted directors of the post New Wave, Maurice Pialat is frequently compared to such legendary filmmakers as Jean Renoir and Robert Bresson. A quintessentially realist filmmaker, who, like Bresson, was also trained as a painter, Pialat’s particular form of realism influenced an entire generation of young filmmakers in the 1990s. This volume is the first book-length study of Pialat’s cinema in English. It provides an introduction to a complex and difficult director, who saw himself as a marginal and marginalised filmmaker, but whose films are deeply rooted in French society and culture. Pialat was long considered the only major filmmaker to portray ‘la France profonde’, the heart of France - the people who, as he put it, ‘take the subway’. Taken as a whole, Pialat’s work can be seen both as an oblique autobiography and the portrait of a fundamental institution - the family - over several generations.
A Companion to François Truffaut
A Companion to François Truffaut “An unprecedented critical tribute to the director who, in France, wound up becoming the most controversial figure of the New Wave he helped found.” Raymond Bellour, Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique “This exciting collection breaks through the widely held critical view that Truffaut abandoned the iconoclasm of his early work for an academicism he had consistently railed against in his own film criticism. Indeed, if ‘fever’ and ‘fire’ were Truffaut’s most consistent motifs, the essays in this collection live up to his lifelong, burning passion for the cinema. Written by world-famous scholars, the essays exhaustively explore the the...

ReFocus: The Films of François Ozon
Examines François Ozon, one of France’s most prolific and best known international (queer) directors.
Francois Ozon
In just over a decade, François Ozon has earned an international reputation as a successful and provocative filmmaker. A student of Eric Rohmer and Jean Douchet at the prestigious Fémis, Ozon made a number of critically acclaimed shorts in the 1990s and released his first feature film Sitcom in 1998. Two additional shorts and eleven feature films have followed, including international successes 8 femmes and Swimming Pool and more recent releases such as Angel, Ricky, and Le refuge. Ozon's originality lies in his filmmaking style, which draws on familiar cinematic traditions (the crime thriller, the musical, the psychological drama, the comedy, the period piece) but simultaneously mixes the...
L'ABC du Japonais et du Chinois (French Edition)
Les Japonais et les Chinois ont en commun l'utilisation d'idéogrammes pour s'exprimer. Mais le plus intéressant c'est que ces idéogrammes transmettent justement des idées. C'est là qu'intervient la finesse dans la compréhension de la langue qui se rapporte au ressenti de chacun des peuples et à leur civilisation. On pourrait schématiser en disant que les Chinois sont un peuple lié à la terre tandis que les Japonais sont soumis aux aléas des océans et des mers. Ainsi l'agriculture et l'élevage sont plus ancrés dans la langue chinoise. Le cheval est incontournable avec le cochon, la volaille, le canard laqué, etc. La maison est en bois avec des meubles. Les Chinois sont avant to...
