Writings on Cinema

Seminal texts by pioneering filmmaker and feminist Germaine Dulac of great interest to film scholars and cinephiles alike. From theoretical essays on the avant-garde to those asserting the value of documentaries for society, Germaine Dulac determines to elevate cinema as art and to engage the public in the process. 

This English translation of the original 1994 French edition, now out-of-print, with a new preface by Prosper Hillairet puts Dulac’s importance and current relevance into perspective and provides links to films mentioned for simultaneous reading and viewing.
