Their love is mired in a mountain of routine and disenchantment. To help keep Zorica from getting deported, Iva gets Damien to promise he’ll go to his father, a state department official, for help. But Damien and his father have a distant and cool relationship. And this mission is a risky business which will send Damien spiraling downward and over the edge… INTERVIEW OF PASCAL BONITZER Like your other heroes (a philosophy professor, a critic, an editor), Damien is an intellectual. Why do you favor that kind of character? I know, that is seriously frowned upon. What can I tell you? I am who I am and my movies are also just a tiny bit about myself, though they’re not autobiographical. It’s not that I think I’m so interesting, but it is a way of obtaining a certain sincerity or authenticity, a certain psychological truth. Why do you make comedies? Comedy is the tone that comes naturally to me, that’s all.

Injured, Paul deserts. Louise decides to hide him dressed as a woman. He soon becomes “Suzanne” a Parisian celebrity in the Roaring 20’s. When granted amnesty, he is challenged to live as a man again. A Dream Come True for Historians by Fabrice Virgili and Danièle Voldman While doing some scholarly work at the Paris police archives, we stumbled across the extraor- dinary story of Paul and Louise, two young people who fell in love in early twentieth-century Paris. When war was declared in July 1914, Paul was mobilized and sent to the front. What then followed was, to say the least, a baroque adventure that could not help but interest André Téchiné, who in 1976 directed the intriguing Barocco. The couple found separation difficult, and Paul could not take the fighting, horror and carnage. Wounded, he deserted and escaped back to Louise. And thus began their ‘golden’ years, escaping the military authorities who were hunting down failed patriots. Paul the deserter disguised himself as a woman and, for ten years, until a general amnesty was declared, Paul became Suzanne and lived as a flapper with Louise.

  • André Téchiné: the Subtle Exploration of Identities
    Film-Philosophy, 11.3 December 2007 André Téchiné: The Subtle Exploration of Identities Isabelle Vanderschelden Manchester Metropolitan University Review: Bill Marshall (2007) André Téchiné Manchester: Manchester University Press ISBN 978-0719058318 168 pp. Although André Téchiné (b. 1943) may only be known to arthouse cinephiles outside France for films such as Les Roseaux sauvages/Wild Reeds (1994) or Les Voleurs/Thieves (1996), his oeuvre consists of seventeen feature films extending from the late sixties to the present1. Many have been presented at international festivals and awarded prizes. Since Les Roseaux sauvages, the majority of Téchiné’s films have had a UK and/or USA release, but the early films are not so readily available.2 This is a pity because, here is clearly an important auteur of contemporary French cinema, yet one who remains strangely more absent from the limelight, than some of his contemporaries, such as Bertrand Tavernier or Claude Miller. Even in France, his films have not received the attention they deserve from the public and the critics: to date one book has been published in the Cahiers du cinéma collection, only covering the first part of his career up to 1987 (Philippon 1988). Bill Marshall’s full-length monograph in English devoted Téchiné’s entire filmography (apart from his latest film, Les Témoins/Witnesses, released in 2007) aims to address this relative lack of critical attention.3 Published by Manchester University Press in the now well established ‘French 1 Two short films made in the 1980s are also analysed by Marshall: La Matiouette (1983 and L’Atelier (1984).

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 .
