Cinema as History: Michele Brault and Modern Quebec
Автор:Professor Andre Loiselle Год: 2009 Издание: [не указанo] Страниц: 237 ISBN: 0968913261 With a career spanning more than five decades, director and cinematographer Michel Brault is one of the most influential figures in Quebecois cinema. Brault's early works, including Les Raquetteurs and Pour la Suite du Monde, reflected a hitherto unacknowledged and unfulfilled need on the part of Quebecois society to see their own culture reflected onscreen and helped spark a cultural renaissance in Quebec. His 1974 fiction feature Les Ordres, which deals with the Quebec Liberation Front crisis and the invocation of the War Measures Act, has consistently been listed as one of the best Quebecois and Canadian films to date. Brault's work as cinematographer -- on groundbreaking films such as Claude Jutra's Mon Oncle Antoine (1971) and Francis Mankiewicz's Les Bons Debarras (1980) -- and his contributions to the development of the cinema-verite movement, have been equally significant.
