The book explores the works of notable filmmakers like Louis Feuillade, Jean Painlevé, Jean Vigo, and Georges Franju, presenting each in the context of broader cinema histories and intellectual traditions rather than solely French cinema. Each chapter serves as a standalone essay, offering original insights and connections to modernist visual artists. It aims to reclaim these filmmakers for a diverse audience in film studies, encouraging alternative perspectives on cinema history. The text is both provocative and essential for enthusiasts and scholars alike.
