Jean Vigo is one of the legendary figures of world cinema, whose films L'Atalante and Zéro de Conduite still inspire young audiences today. Film historian Michael Temple explores Vigo's intense career and asks why it has had such a long-lasting impact on film culture, not just in France, but also for generations of filmmakers, critics, and moviegoers around the world. Accessibly written, this will be essential reading for students, teachers, film enthusiasts, and researchers.
