ISBN-13: 978-0-7800-2303-1, ISBN: 0-7800-2303-X

"René Clair's Under the Roofs of Paris is a delightful pastiche of vignettes loosely held together by a creaky plot involving theft, romance, and mistaken identity. Albert loves Pola, who is being romanced by a seedy thief. Albert ends up in jail instead of the thief and Pola falls for Albert's best friend, Louis. This film was Clair's first talkie and the first French musical. However, this isn't a musical in the Hollywood sense of ..."

"One of the all-time great comedy classics, René Clair's À Nous la Liberté is a skillful satire of the industrial revolution and the blind quest for wealth. Deftly integrating his signature musical-comedy technique with pointed social criticism, Clair tells the story of an escaped convict who becomes a wealthy industrialist. Unfortunately his past returns to upset his carefully laid plans. Featuring lighthearted wit, tremendous visual in ..."

"The inspiration for Charlie Chaplin's Modern Times, Rene Clair's comic masterpiece was a landmark in the early days of sound production. In A Nous La Liberte Claire employs plenty of clever dialog tricks, comic sound effects, and songs to tell this satirical story of two friends who go from down and out prisoners to wealthy businessmen. When Louis successfully escapes from prison he winds up making a fortune in the phonograph business ..."

"Welcome back one of the treasures of international cinema. In 1929-30, when Hollywood was stymied by the arrival of talkies, a Frenchman named René Clair set about reinventing the movies for the world of sound. Rather than enslave his camera--and imagination--to a microphone in a potted palm, Clair embraced sound as a liberating new dimension of the motion picture. His effervescent comedy-musical-romance Le Million doesn't just ..."

"At first glance, René Clair might seem an odd match for Agatha Christie's mystery thriller And Then There Were None, but his buoyant touch is exactly what is missing from so many overly solemn remakes. Ten strangers gather for a mysterious gathering on a secluded island. It turns out to be a farewell party, for they have all been sentenced to die for crimes in their past by a self-appointed judge, jury and executioner who could be one o ..."

"In the mid-18th century, a wedding gown is found floating down the Mississippi river. Only three people know the secret of its damp origin, and the ripples of love lost and love found, rising and receding in its wake.
