The French New Wave was perhaps the biggest--and
briefest--explosion in the history of world cinema, with over one
hundred French directors shooting debut features between 1958 and
1964. Its aftershocks are still being felt today. Through the work
of such directors as Jean-Luc Godard and Fran?ois Truffaut,
filmmakers came to be seen as outstanding artists rather than mere
studio technicians, paving the way for contemporary cinematic
auteurs such as Martin Scorsese, Pedro Almodovar, and Luc Besson.
This volume begins by tracing the social and cultural changes of
post-war France that gave birth to the New Wave, then examines in
detail the careers of artists like Alain Renais and Jean-Luc
Godard. "The French New Wave: A New Look" is a concise and
accessible account of a crucial movement in film history.
