[From rear cover] Never previously collected, these reviews and articles show the critical development of Andre Bazin, who, as Pauline Kael has said, "single-handedly brought the French film back to life." In his introduction, director Francois Truffaut provides an overall historical context for the wartime Bazin essays. Despite difficulties caused by material shortages, the flight or imprisonment of major cinema artists, and the harassment of censors, these tragic years demonstrated the vitality of French cinema. . . .The origins of the auteur-based approach to film criticism in Bazin's classic What is Cinema? are clear in such incisive articles as "Let's Rediscover Cinema!," "The Art of Not Seeing Films," and "The Cinema and Popular Art." This important study is not only a must for the serious film student but a feast for the average film buff. ANDRE BAZIN (1918-1958) was one of the co-founders of Cahiers du Cinema, probably the most influential film periodical ever published. He attracted to his banner young critics such as Godard, Truffaut, Rohmer, and Chabrol, who went on to create France's brilliant New Wave. FRANCOIS TRUFFAUT, originally a Cahiers critic, is the director of such classic films as Les Quatre Cent Coups (1959), Jules et Jim (1961), and La Nuit Americaine (1973).
