Voyage à travers le cinéma français

Back to listing

Just as it is impossible for anyone but a poet to describe love, it is rare to find a cinephile who can find the right words to express their passion and where it comes from. Filmmaker Bertrand Tavernier manages it, jumping from Renoir to Becker, from Vigo and his Atalante to Melville and Sautet, and from musicians to Jean Gabin. A touching exploration of a life devoted to cinema.
