Despite his controversial reputation and international notoriety as a film-maker, no full-length study of Clouzot has ever been published in English. This book offers a significant revaluation of Clouzot’s achievement, situating his life and work in the wider context of French cinema and society, and providing detailed analysis of his major films.
