'For me, the best book on cinema, written by the best critic, on the best director' (Truffaut).Eminence grise of the New Wave and colleague of Godard, Truffaut and Rivette, Bazin was one of the most influential French film critics of the twentieth century. His most famous work, this detailed study of the 'Master' was written in the 50s and first published in Paris in 1971.
