Inhalt:

One of the greatest and least-known filmmakers of aIl time, Raymond Bernard helped shape France's nationaI cinema into one of the world's most formidable HoIIywood aIternatives. TypicaI of films from the IargeIy unheralded period, between the siIent era and the rise of poetic realism, Bernard's dazzIing dramas painted intimate meIodrama on epic-scale canvases. These two masterpieces-the wrenching World War I tragedy Wooden Crosses and a mammoth, nearly five-hour Les Miserables, widely considered the greatest film adaptation of Victor Hugo's noveI-exempIify the formal and narrative brilliance of an unjustly overshadowed cinematic traiIblazer. Wooden Crosses Hailed by the New York Times on its Paris release as "one of the great films in motion-picture history," Wooden Crosses, France's answer to AlI Quiet On The Western Front, stiIl stuns with its depiction of the travaiIs of one French regiment during WorId War l. Using a masterfuI arsenal of techniques, from haunting matte paintings to jarring documentarylike camera work in the film's battle sequences, Bernard created a pacifist work of enormous empathy and chilIing despair. No one who has ever seen this technicaI and emotionaI powerhouse has never been able to forget it. Les MiserabIes WideIy considered the greatest screen adaptation of Victor Hugo's beIoved noveI, Bernard's dazzling, nearIy five-hour Les Miserables is a breathtaking tour de force, unfoIding with the depth and detaiI of its source. Featuring stunning art direction and cinematography and unforgettable performances as the exquisite Harry Baur, as Jean Valjean, and the legendary CharIes Vanel, as Inspector Javert, Les Miserables is one of the triumphs of French fiImmaking.
