Description
Costa-Gavras is a seminal figure in French and international cinema.
A master of the political thriller, he explores historical events through individual human stories, thereby involving his audience in past and contemporary traumas, from the horrors of the Holocaust through mid-century international state terrorism and totalitarianism to the current global financial crisis.
With a career spanning half a century, he remains one of cinema’s most intriguing and enduring storytellers, theorists and political commentators.
This collection of original essays charts and re-examines Costa-Gavras’s career from Un homme de trop (1967) to Le capital (2012).
Readable and carefully researched, it will appeal to students and scholars of film, as well as fans of the director’s work. -- .
