French Cinema Book, The 
Temple, Michael; Witt, Michael
'The French Cinema Book is an accessible and innovative survey of key topics in French cinema from the 1890s to the 21st century.

The French Cinema Book proposes new insights into familiar areas and sets out a fresh agenda for the study and appreciation of French cinema:

'Who are the men and women who have made French cinema happen?'

'What is the business culture in which French cinema has evolved?'

'How has technological change effected artistic and commercial innovation?'

'What have been the most popular and the most experimental forms?'

'What has French cinema shown us of France, its society, its citizens, its concerns?'

'How has the spectator's experience of film-going changed in the last 100 years?'

'How have debates about film reflected cinema's unique place in French culture?'

The book combines historical context and background information with detailed discussion of case-studies, analysis of films, recommendations for further reading and resources to use.

The French Cinema Book is addressed to all lovers of French cinema, students and teachers, specialists and fans.
