'Michel Marie, legendary cinephile and scholar of French cinema, has fashioned a three-dimensional map of the New Wave ‘School&apos;, providing its genesis and morphology as well. The table of contents alone is full of important ideas and promising directions. Yet within this brilliant organization operates the eye and the sensibility of someone who is intimate with these intimate films. What a vast film-culture subtends this tidy study.' <i>Dudley Andrew, Yale University</i> <!--end--> <br /> <p><br /> </p> <p>'In Richard Neupert's extremely readable translation, Michel Marie's <i>French New Wave</i> is just what the directors ordered – a rat-a-tat-tat new look at the Nouvelle Vague that is fresh and irreverent. Michel Poiccard/Jean-Paul Belmondo would have loved it.' <i>Rick Altman, University of Iowa</i></p>
