内容提要:
"It is hard to imagine French cinema without La Jete虂e (1962), the time-travel short feature by the reclusive French filmmaker Christian Franc抬ois Bouche-Villeneuve, better known as Chris Marker. He not only influenced artists ranging from David Bowie to J. G. Ballard but also inspired the cult film 12 Monkeys. Marker's influence expanded beyond his own films through his writings for the French monthly Esprit as well as anthologies and newly founded film publications. This first English translation of Marker's early writings on film brings together reviews and essays, published between 1948 and 1955, that span the topics of film style, adaptation, and ideology, as well as animation and the debates surrounding 3-D and wide-screen technologies, ranging from late silent-era films to postwar Hollywood's efforts to contend with the rise of television. Readers will find commentary on Laurence Olivier's 1944 screen adaptation of Henry V, a scathing review of Robert Montgomery's Lady in the Lake (1947), critiques of Walt Disney productions, a discussion of the pitfalls of prioritizing commercial success over aesthetic values, and more. An indispensable resource for cinephiles and scholars alike, these texts document the emergence of Marker's critical voice and situate him alongside such contemporaries as Andre虂 Bazin and Eric Rohmer, as well as the future French New Wave figures Jean-Luc Godard and Franc抬ois Truffaut. They show how his remarks on individual films open onto his engagement with films as social and cultural phenomena."--publisher's website.
