Martin O’Shaughnessy. Manchester: Manchester University Press, 2015 (194 pages). ISBN: 9780719091506. A Review by Ally Lee, University of Warwick Martin O’Shaughnessy’s Laurent Cantet is the latest edition of—and the author’s second contribution to—the Manchester University Press French Film Directors series after the publication in 2000 of his study on the films of Jean Renoir. The series currently features an impressive forty volumes and this assessment of one of France’s most important active filmmakers is a welcome addition. Despite Cantet’s prominence, he has so far been the subject of relatively little scholarly investigation. Previously, only one monograph-length exploration of the director’s oeuvre, Yannick Lebtahi and Isabelle Rousel-Gillet’s stimulating and insightful Pour une méthode d’investigation du cinéma de Laurent Cantet, had been published. -

They travel to Sweden where he lives, to spend the summer holidays with him. Tom is anxious about meeting this strange, solitary man again. The father, meanwhile, is convinced that Tom has the gift of seeing things that others can’t... INTERVIEW WITH GILLES MARCHAND Where did the idea of making this film come from? The starting point is closely linked to trips my brother and I used to take as children to see my father who lived abroad. It was impressive to go see him in a faraway country, to discover a way of life we knew nothing about. We were uneasy but also curious and extremely attentive. I relied on my memories, but mostly on sensations. I wanted to convey things through the eyes of a child. -

Armed with the best intentions, they brace themselves to not let discouragement stop them from trying to give the best education to their students. Cultures and attitudes often clash in the classroom, a microcosm of contemporary France. As amusing and inspiring as the teenaged students can be, their difficult behavior can still jeapordize any teacher's enthusiasm for the low-paying job. François insists on an atmosphere of respect and diligence. Neither stuffy nor severe, his extravagant frankness often takes the students by surprise. But his classroom ethics are put to the test when his students begin to challenge his methods... South’s release, I met François who was presenting his new book, Entre les murs (Between the Walls) at that time. His discourse was a counterattack to the indictment on today's schools : for once, a professor was not writing in order to get back at adolescents presented as savages or idiots. -

The drama brought about by exile and its personal and collective consequences, by INTRODUTION BY LEONARDO PADURA the struggle for economic survival, by camouflage as a way of life, by ethical loss or clinging to national and cultural loyalties, the spiritual defeat and struggle against all fears… these are a few of the ingredients which flavor the recent bends in the road for this generation, one that dreamed of a better future for all and sacrificed itself for A GENERATION IN THE that dream.

French Films
Language Laboratory Film Collection Wagner College, Campus Hall 202 Belgium/Canadian/French/Swiss Films (updated April 2011): The 4 Musketeers (1974) Richard Lester The Four Musketeers defend the queen and her dressmaker from Cardinal Richelieu and Milady de Winter. 35 shots of Rhum (2008) Claire Denis. France Displaying poetic realism, “35 shots of Rhum” is an enchanting film by Claire Denis, one of the most underestimated filmmakers in the US. Set among a small circle of friends and neighbors in a Parisian suburb, the tale centers around the relationship between a father and daughter and the arrival of a handsome young man. Sumptuously filmed, this delicate, understated film deals with the issue of the difficulties involved in letting go of family ties, even when they are dictated by the natural progress of time. The 400 Blows/ Les 400 coups (1959) François Truffaut. France A young Parisian boy, Antoine Doinel, neglected by his derelict parents, skips school, sneaks into movies, runs away from home, steals things, and tries (disastrously) to return them. Like most kids, he gets into more trouble for things he thinks are right than for his actual trespasses. He inhabits a Paris of dingy flats, seedy arcades, abandoned factories, and workaday streets, a city that seems big and full of possibilities only to a child's eye. One of the main films of the nouvelle vague. The Adversary/ L' Adversaire (2002) Nicole Garcia. France Based on the 2000 book of the same name by Emmanuelle Carrère, this film is inspired by the real-life story of Jean Claude Romand who lived a lie for almost 20 years as he pursued an imaginary career as a doctor of medicine . -

Laurent Cantet. Martin O'shaughnessy. Manchester
Laurent Cantet. Martin O’Shaughnessy. Manchester: Manchester University Press, 2015 (194 pages). ISBN: 9780719091506. A Review by Ally Lee, University of Warwick Martin O’Shaughnessy’s Laurent Cantet is the latest edition of—and the author’s second contribution to—the Manchester University Press French Film Directors series after the publication in 2000 of his study on the films of Jean Renoir. The series currently features an impressive forty volumes and this assessment of one of France’s most important active filmmakers is a welcome addition. Despite Cantet’s prominence, he has so far been the subject of relatively little scholarly investigation. Previously, only one monograph-length exploration of the director’s oeuvre, Yannick Lebtahi and Isabelle Rousel-Gillet’s stimulating and insightful Pour une méthode d’investigation du cinéma de Laurent Cantet, had been published. Besides this, James S. Williams’s Space and Being in Contemporary French Cinema contains a superb chapter on the filmmaker’s work, while O’Shaughnessy himself has written about Cantet in previous articles and book sections, primarily in the broader contexts of both the Young French Cinema and 1990s New Realism (“Post-1995”; The New Face). This latest study supplements and builds on this existing literature. As the first sustained English-language appraisal of the output of a filmmaker who has elicited global interest, the book provides an original, thoroughgoing consideration of Cantet’s working method, incorporating visual analysis and valuable insights into how his films are conceived. The author covers Cantet’s entire directorial output to date. Interestingly, he addresses the filmmaker’s lesser-known early shorts—Tous à la manif (1994), Jeux de plage (1995) and Les sanguinaires (1998)—before turning his attention to the filmmaker’s more renowned works, from Human Resources (Ressources humaines, 2000) to Foxfire: Confessions of a Girl Gang (Foxfire: confessions d’un gang de filles, 2012). -
