Jean Renoir (1894-1979) is one of cinema history's greatest
directors. La Grande illusion (1937) and La Regle du jeu (1939)
rank among the masterpieces of film. Turning to thinkers such as
Aristotle, Wittgenstein, Girard, Derrida, and Cavell, Colin Davis
examines Renoir's films and illustrates how his work engages with
some of the great philosophical questions. In particular, Renoir's
films reflect on the nature of murder and its link to desire,
community, ethics, and the mystery of other minds. As his films
strive, and often fail, to avoid the impasse of violence, they find
creative ways of reinventing what it means to be human.
