| Description: |
One of the most brilliant film-makers in post-war French and world cinema, Jean-Pierre Melville enjoys popularity. This book looks at Melville's controversial critical and political standing, his extraordinary focus on masculinity and male stars such as Alain Delon, Jean-Paul Belmondo and Lino Ventura, and his trademark 'pared-down' mise-en-scene. |
| Synopsis: |
Ginette Vincendeau discusses the artistic value of his films in their proper context and comments on Jean-Pierre Melville's love of American culture and his controversial critical and political standing in this English language study. |
