Summary:
A celebration of French cinema, drawn from the pages of Positif magazine.
This issue celebrates French cinema using the interviews conducted by Positif with the major French filmmakers of the past fifty years. It presents a panorama of French cinema ranging from the aesthetic masterpieces of Robert Bresson to the searing aggression of Mathieu Sassovitz's La Haine, including along the way the masters of the French New Wave: Alain Resnais, Eric Rohmer and Claude Chabrol. Over the past fifty years, French cinema has exhibited an incredible ability to renew itself, and not only to flourish in the face of competition from English-language filmmaking, but also to create masterpieces of cinema.
