Richard Roud, film writer and co-founder and director of the New
York Film Festival, was one of the most influential film critics of
the twentieth century. Renowned for his close relationships with
French New Wave directors such as Godard and Truffaut, he played a
key role in bringing European art cinema to the attention of
American and British audiences. This anthology brings together
selected writings from his published works with previously
unpublished archival material - from an unfinished study of
Truffaut, to extracts from his books on film-makers such as
Straub-Huillet and Ophuls, and articles for The Guardian and Sight
& Sound. Charting Roud's journey through the world of film
festivals and film criticism from the 1950s to the 1980s, Decades
Never Start on Time provides a fascinating insight into the
flourishing film culture of the era. With a preface by David
Thomson.

discussed. Within each chapter images, illustrations and tables
will provide the quick access to the "What You Need to Know"

Jean Vigo is one of the legendary figures of world cinema, whose
films L'Atalante and Zero de conduite still inspire young audiences
today. Film historian Michael Temple explores Vigo's intense career
and asks why it has had such a long-lasting impact on film culture,
not just in France, but also for generations of filmmakers, critics
and moviegoers around the world. Each film is examined under four
headings: - social and political context - the making of the film,
from conception to release - detailed analysis of narrative
structure, main stylistic features and dominant themes - the
reception of the film and its critical reputation Accessibly
written, this will be essential reading for students, teachers,
film enthusiasts and researchers, indeed for anyone who is
interested in the cinema as a living art form. -- .
