Subject: JOUR SE LEVE, LE (FR, Marcel Carne, 1939)
Summary: Le Jour se le`ve (1939), directed by Marcel Carne´, is widely recognised as the classic French Poetic Realist film. Told in flashback, it recounts the story of a man who has committed a murder, and who awaits his fate as the police close in. Carne´ shuttles between different registers, tones, and textures throughout, marshalling the studio's resources to create striking pictorial compositions. The film also contains the great French star Jean Gabin's most iconic performance as Franc¸ois, marooned at the top of his apartment building. Ben McCann's perceptive and lively book traces the evolution of 'Le Jour se le`ve' and situates it in a very specific historical moment. He also underlines the importance of actors Jules Berry and Arletty, production designer Alexandre Trauner, writer Jacques Pre´vert, and cinematographer Curt Courant in establishing the film's tone, mood, and visual style. He charts the national and international reception of the film, uncovering a work that deeply divided critics at a time of national crisis. He also reveals Le Jour se le`ve to be a key transitional work between European and American noir and compares it with the 1947 Hollywood remake. [extract taken from back of book]
