Description
L'Atalante is the work of French director Jean Vigo. It is a study of romantic love, told in a style influenced by surrealism, but still Vigo's own. This text is part of the 'BFI Film Classics' series. Each volume in the series presents a personal commentary on the film, together with a brief production history and a detailed filmography, notes and bibliography.
Author Biography
MARINA WARNER is a novelist and historian. Her books include Indigo and From the Beast to the Blonde.
Reviews"The core of the book is unchanged but still spot-on in its tribute to this masterpiece of French cinema and the man she calls the `Rimbaud of cinema'. The illustrations are good, the text thorough, and the background to the film's production and subsequent restoration excellent." (Jon Davies, The Media Education Journal, Issue 61, 2017)
