Klappentext zu „BFI Film Classics / La Regle du jeu. The Rules of the Game “
Today Jean Renoir's La Règle du jeu( The Rules of the Game) is highly regarded by fans, critics, film theorists and film-makers, who consider it to be a modern European film classic. The film's legacy is blighted however by a poor start: on original release in 1939 it was disastrously received at its Paris premiere as an offensive satire on the French bourgeoisie before the Second World War, which resulted in its being bannedby the French government.Twenty years later, Renoir released a restored version of the film - the first 'Director's Cut' - which was met with triumph at the Venice Film Festival. Today La Règle du jeuis appreciated as a realist depiction of middle-class French society and as Renoir had intended, celebrated as a 'comedy of manners' (albeit one full of anguish).
In this addition to the 'Film Classics' series, Victor Perkins's attentive study relates the film's troubled history to the profundity and originality of its form.
