Robert Guédiguian
On one level, this book provides a concise and comprehensive account of Robert Guédiguian's numerous films, combining meticulous stylistic analyses with historical, political, and generic context. But more deeply, it makes the case that Guédiguian's work represents one of the most discretely original and radical projects of contemporary French cinema. When Marius et Jeannette (1997) made Guédiguian a household name in France, most viewers were unaware that the film's freshness was the product of a project that Guédiguian had started in 1981 and that continues today: to make politically committed films with friends, predominately in a local space, over a long period of time. Starting with...

Space and being in contemporary French cinema
This book brings together for the first time five French directors who have established themselves as among the most exciting and significant working today: Bruno Dumont, Robert Guédiguian, Laurent Cantet, Abdellatif Kechiche, and Claire Denis. Whatever their chosen habitats or shifting terrains, each of these highly distinctive auteurs has developed unique strategies of representation and framing that reflect a profound investment in the geophysical world. The book proposes that we think about cinematographic space in its many different forms simultaneously (screenspace, landscape, narrative space, soundscape, spectatorial space). Through a series of close and original readings of selected...

World Film Locations: Marseilles

Due to its prolific film industry in the 1920s, Marseilles was referred to as “the French Los Angeles.” World Film Locations: Marseilles examines the representations of this port city in cinema, through essays and film scene reviews devoted to an exploration of its topography as depicted by Jean Epstein, Jean-Luc Godard, Jean-Pierre Melville, Jean Renoir, Jean-Jacques Beineix, and many others. This volume showcases Marseilles’s diversity as articulated onscreen: from the winding streets of the Panier to the Old Port’s noisy markets, fro...
Robert Guédiguian
Robert Guédiguian est un cinéaste à part. ;, C'est peut-être parce qu'il aurait voulu être un " révolutionnaire professionnel " qu'il a fait dans sa profession une révolution : être indépendant, libre, fidèle à ses idées et à ses amitiés... Ce n'est pas si facile par les temps qui courent ! Son discours est clair, entier, sans compromis, sans maniérisme, mais toujours avec conviction et lucidité. " Une forme de communisme est la seule survie de l'humanité" dit-il. Mais en attendant des temps meilleurs, il continue de militer avec sa caméra en racontant la vie des siens. Et il est comme son cinéma : intelligent et très attachant.
