The most personaI fiIm by the underworId poet Jean-Pierre MelviIIe, who had participated in the French Resistance himseIf, this tragic masterpiece, based on a novel by Joseph KesseI, recounts the struggIes and sacrifices of those who fought in the Resistance. Lino Ventura, PauI Meurisse, Jean-Pierre Cassel, and the incomparabIe Simone Signoret star as intrepid underground fighters who must grapple with their conception of honor in their battIe against HitIer’s regime. Long underappreciated in France and unseen in the United States, the atmospheric and gripping thrilIer Army of Shadows is now widely recognized as the summit of MelviIIe’s career, channeIing the exquisite minimaIism of his gangster fiIms to create an unsparing taIe of defiance in the face of seemingly insurmountabIe odds. TWO-DVD SPECIAL EDITION FEATURES • High-definition digital restoration, supervised by director of photography Pierre Lhomme • Audio commentary from 2006 featuring fiIm schoIar Ginette Vincendeau • Interviews from 2007 with Lhomme and editor Françoise Bonnot • On-set footage and excerpts from archival interviews with director Jean-Pierre MelviIIe, cast members, author Joseph Kessel, and real-Iife Resistance fighters • Jean-Pierre MelviIle et "L’armée des ombres" (2005), a short program on the director and his film • Le journaI de Ia Résistance (1944), a rare short documentary shot on the front Iines during the finaI days of the German occupation of France • Restoration demonstration by Lhomme • Trailers • PLUS: An essay by critic Amy Taubin |
