AlbakiReads Editorial A chronological reference to French films of 1929–1939

A chronological reference to French films of 1929–1939

Covering 101 films from 1929 to 1939, this first volume organizes French cinema into a chronological filmography that connects individual titles with their cultural and historical contexts. Each entry brings together cast and character listings, production information, a plot and narrative-structure summary, and critical discussion of the film’s place in its period. An appendix records awards associated with the selected films, while an extensive bibliography points toward further research. The volume situates this prewar decade within a broader account of twentieth-century French cinema and its relationship to French society.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Students and researchers of French cinema
  • Film-reference users seeking production and cast details
  • Readers studying French cultural history between the wars
