An estimated 75 percent of the book details previously unknown information about the filmmaker, including Renoir’s close affiliation with Communism in the ’30s (when he was the Party’s official director) and his work with the fascist regimes during World War II; his previously uncredited Hollywood film, The Amazing Mrs. Holiday; and new information on the making of his most famous films.
Drawing from unpublished or little known sources, this biography is a completely fresh approach to the maker of Grand Illusion and The Rules of the Game, redefining the very function of the movie director and simultaneously recounting the history of a century.
