Julien Duvivier in the Thirties (Criterion Collection

Description: Julien Duvivier in the Thirties (Criterion Collection - Eclipse Series 40) [New Title: Julien Duvivier in the Thirties (Criterion Collection - Eclipse Series 40) Format: DVD Label: Criterion Collection Genre: Foreign-French, Drama UPC: 715515161411 Release Date: 2015 Remembered primarily for directing the classic crime drama Pépé le moko, Julien Duvivier was one of the finest filmmakers working in France in the 1930s. He made the transition from silents to talkies with ease, thanks to a formidable innate understanding of the cinematic medium, and he married his expressive camera work to a strikingly inventive use of sound with a singular dexterity. His deeply shadowed, fatalistic early sound films David Golder and La tête d'un homme anticipate the poetic realist style that would come to define the decade in French cinema, while the small-town family drama Poil de Carotte and the swooning tale of love and illusion Un carnet de bal showcase his stunning versatility. These four films-all featuring the great stage turned screen actor Harry Baur-are collected here, each evidence of an immense and often overlooked cinematic talent.© DirectToU LLC.
