Completely fascinating documentary directed by Éric Rohmer, who is questioning the two cinephiles Jean Renoir and Henri Langlois about their opinions on Lumíère's film heritage.
We also get to watch more than thirty shorts from the second half of the 1890's, made by the Lumières.
66 minutes. Black and white. Made for French television in 1968. Available as a bonus on the (2010) R2 DVD of Éric Rohmer's LE SIGNE DU LION/The Sign of the Lion (1962) from Artificial Eye.
