As a pioneer of the French New Wave, Jacques Rivette was instrumental in reshaping global cinema by moving filmmaking from studios to the streets. His works, including "Paris nous appartient" and "CΓ©line et Julie vont en bateau," are noted for their intellectual depth, playful nature, and visual beauty. This study by Mary M. Wiles offers a comprehensive look at Rivette's career, from his early days in the New Wave to his later work. The analysis focuses on the theatrical elements in his films and his exploration of the connections between cinema and other art forms like painting, literature, music, and dance.
