À propos de cet audio

Jean-Pierre Melville’s look back at the perilous times of France’s occupation during WWII arrived while the French were trying to look forward; protests and workers’ strikes throughout ‘68 had attempted to spur change in de Gaulle’s government, and that man, who had made a political career of his role in the campaign to free France from nazi occupation, was the last person that young audiences wanted to see celebrated. Army of Shadows was a box office failure as a result, but more recent reevaluations have heralded the film as one of Melville’s best. We examine how the genre filmmaker confronted the audience with impossible questions and avoided propagandistic pitfalls, and we lose our minds over some of the more shocking scenes in cinema history.
