La Bienne by Renoir, Jules et Jim de Truffaut, Father Christmas is a scum of Poiré, La Cage aux folles by Édouard Molinaro, Three men and a bassinet by Coline Serreau. So many scenarios taken up by the American cinema industry. Since the mid-1930s more than 70 remakes of French films have been made in Hollywood. Are these new versions a mark of Hollywood imperialism or a form of exchange between French cinema and American cinema? Certified copies? Adaptations? Or authentic Hollywood translations? How to understand this cinematographic phenomenon while taking into account its unstable contours, the diversity of cases? Raphaëlle Moine chooses to show her multiple facets, both legal, economic and historical, and adopts a cultural approach to restore the remake to all its richness. "Thanks to the remakes, French cinema as such and as a whole gains an emotion, a creativity, an inventiveness that criticism in general denies it".

The uprising which shook France in May 1968 also had a revolutionary effect on the country's most prominent film journal. Under editors Jean-Louis Comolli and Jean Narboni, Cahiers du cinéma embarked on a militant turn that would govern the journal's work over the next five years. With a Marxist orientation inspired by the thinking of Louis Althusser, Jacques Lacan and Roland Barthes, the "red years" of Cahiers du cinéma produced a theoretical outpouring that was formative for the establishment of film studies as an academic discipline in the 1970s, and is still of vital relevance for the contemporary audiovisual landscape. It was also the seminal experience for a generation of critics who have dedicated the following half-century to the task of critically responding to the cinema. The Red Years of Cahiers du Cinéma (1968-1973) gives a historical overview of this period in the journal's history, combining biographical accounts of the critics who were involved with Cahiers in the post-1968 and theoretical explorations of the text they wrote. Volume II centers on questions of aesthetics and the cinema's ontological relationship with the real.

Une polyphonie s’orchestre ici selon des mouvements bien distincts : le premier consiste à envisager les « affinités électives » qui inspirent le cinéma de Rohmer - depuis sa filiation éprouvée avec Kleist, avec André Bazin, jusqu’à ses interprétations plus personnelles de Murnau ou de Jean Renoir (en passant par des coïncidences inattendues avec l’art d’un David Hockney…). Le second cercle est celui des études transversales, qui s’attachent à dégager la modernité du récit rohmérien à travers tous les manques qui le constituent ou les ambiguïtés du point de vue ; une modernité à quoi se dérobent en même temps ses personnages, dans leur idéalisme amoureux et leur nostalgie d’une « nature humaine » devenue problématique. Autant d’éléments que précisent six analyses de films, tout en remontant vers un sous-texte métaphorique (dans Le Signe du Lion, dans L’Amour, l’après-midi), ou une re-présentation picturale et historique (dans L’Anglaise et le Duc). Enfin, une série d’entretiens dessine ce qu’on pourrait appeler « l’atelier d’Éric Rohmer » : qu’il s’agisse de production ou de montage, du recours au son direct, à la lumière naturelle ou aux essais vidéo, on y découvre une sorte de conspiration artisanale et familiale, sans exemple depuis Georges Méliès ou Marcel Pagnol - et où un certain ésotérisme dissimule une absolue liberté.

André Bazin's What Is Cinema? (volumes I and II) have been classics of film studies for as long as they've been available and are considered the gold standard in the field of film criticism. Although Bazin made no films, his name has been one of the most important in French cinema since World War II. He was co-founder of the influential Cahiers du Cinéma, which under his leadership became one of the world's most distinguished publications. Championing the films of Jean Renoir (who contributed a short foreword to Volume I), Orson Welles, and Roberto Rossellini, he became the protégé of François Truffaut, who honors him touchingly in his foreword to Volume II. This new edition includes graceful forewords to each volume by Bazin scholar and biographer Dudley Andrew, who reconsiders Bazin and his place in contemporary film study. The essays themselves are erudite but always accessible, intellectual, and stimulating. As Renoir puts it, the essays of Bazin "will survive even if the cinema does not."
