Despite her immensely productive and creative career, Guy Blache's indispensable contribution to film history has been overlooked. She entered the world of film making at its nascent stage, when films were seen primarily as a medium in the service of science or as an aDJunct to selling cameras. Working with Gaumont cameramen and cameras and the new technical advances for the projection of film, she became one of the film pioneers ushering in the new era of motion pictures as a narrative form. Written by cinema history experts and curators, this handsome volume brings to light a critical new mass of Guy Blache's film oeuvre in an effort to restore her to her rightful place in film history. 1 Kg.…
