Description

Lisa Downing's comprehensive study of the films of Patrice Leconte traces lines of continuity and revision through a body of apparently disparate films whose "messages" often appear both contradictory and controversial.

Pursuing a close reading of the recurrent themes, styles, intertexts and techniques which structure Leconte's filmmaking, Downing re-evaluates Leconte's status as an enigmatic artist offering complex and paradoxical commentary on contemporary questions of sexuality, ethics and identity.

This book is the first full-length critical work in English on Leconte's cinema.

It provides essential reading for both enthusiasts of French cinema and for those fascinated by the relationship between popular culture and theory. -- .
