Summary
Bertrand Tavernier's follow-up to his César-nominated three-and-a-half hour tour through French cinema, "My journey through French cinema" (2017). In this new series, the acclaimed director presents eight hours of new material, guiding us through a roster of filmmakers both influential and forgotten, exploring how his country's cinema was shaped by the German occupation and changed again through the New Wave, spotlighting little-known female filmmakers, and more. Subjects include: René Clément, Henri-Georges Clouzot, Julien Duvivier, Henri Decoin, Claude Autant-Lara, as well as composers who made movie music an art unto itself, far from the Hollywood spotlight.
