Like its French-language companion volume Le Cin ma franais contemporain: Manuel de classe , Alan Singerman and Michle Bissire' Contemporary French Cinema: A Student' Book offers a detailed look at recent French cinema through its analyses of twenty notable and representative French films that have appeared since 1980. Sure to delight Anglophone fans of French film, it can be used with equal success in English-language courses and, when paired with its companion volume, dual-language ones. Acclaim for Le Cin ma franais contemporain: Manuel de classe From Le Dernier M tro to Intouchables , Bissire and Singerman cover the latest trends of French cinema, emphasizing context and analytical method as Singerman did in Apprentissage du cin ma franais (Focus 2004). The authors offer a selection of films most French cinephiles will applaud, and they incorporate insights from some of the best critical work on French cinema. Students of French film will also find all the bibliographical pointers they need to dig deeper, and instructors will appreciate the pedagogical components included in the chapters.Jonathan Walsh, Department of French Studies, Wheaton College , Massachusetts This remarkable book comes to us from two seasoned teachers and critics and beautifully complements an earlier work, Alan Singerman' Apprentissage du cin ma franais . The time period covered, more targeted here than in the preceding text, is admirably well chosen, and the breakdown by broad category, each offering multiple options, guides the teacher while offering a choice among an abundance of interesting films.
