Description
Book SynopsisPresents an English-language study of Chris Marker, who stands among the most influential filmmakers of the postwar era. This study includes interviews with the director and investigates the core themes and motivations behind an often unpredictable and transnational that defies easy classification.
Trade Review"Nora Alter's short study of Marker's work does much to restore a sense of the complexity of his motivations and working methods . . . She is especially informative on the aesthetic and political involutions of post-war France. . . . For its filmography and the breadth of its coverage, her book is essential."--Brian Dillon,
Sight and Sound "A valuable addition to Marker scholarship."--
