Book Presentation:
Abel Gance's film, restored through the efforts of Kevin Brownlow, is discussed here by Kelly Kaplan. Formerly Gance's assistant, and later, with such productions as The Pirate's Fiancee, Kaplan became a film director in her own right. The book features a brief production history and a detailed filmography.
About the Author:
Director, scriptwriter, and author Nelly Kaplan was an intimate collaborator of Gance from 1954 to 1964. She thus gained access to rare documents in many cases unpublished to this day, some of which appear for the first time in this book. Bernard McGuirk is Professor of Romance Literature and Literary Theory at the University of Nottingham. He has published widely on the literatures and cultures of France, Spain, Portugal, and Latin America.
