This guide reviews and analyzes all of the major films in the movement and offers profiles of its principal stars, such as Jean-Paul Belmondo, Anna Karina, and Brigitte Bardot. There is also an introductory essay which examines the social context of the movement in France as well as the directors' considerable influence on later-generations of film-makers across the globe.
