First line
French historians of the cinema have been tempted into romantic attitudes when describing the conditions under which the French sound cinema developed and operated, such that it can seem that the French cinema, lurching from crisis to crisis, was unduly unfortunate among national cinemas.
From the rear cover
In 'The Classic French Cinema, 1930-1960, ' Colin Crisp investigates the critical period from the introduction of sound to the beginning of the New Wave. He details the extraordinary ingenuity of French film-makers who worked under economic and technological constraints that affected both the production and the consumption of films.
