"A Glimpse into the World of Cine Cameras: From Instruction to Tragic Interruptions" In this captivating snapshot from c1932, film producer Anthony Asquith takes a pause for instruction on the set in Twickenham, London. The atmosphere is charged with creativity and anticipation as the cine camera stands ready to capture cinematic magic. Across the English Channel, France-Cinema embraces its love affair with the silver screen. It becomes evident as we delve into the life and work of Derek Jarman, an extraordinary English film director, stage designer, diarist, artist, and gardener. His innovative vision has left an indelible mark on French cinema. However, not all stories have happy endings. A tragic interruption befalls a film production captured in vivid color lithography. The image freezes a moment forever lost in time - a poignant reminder of how fragile art can be. Yet amidst tragedy lies adventure; "l'Expedition" invites us to explore African landscapes through drawings and paintings brought to life by cinematography. We find ourselves transported to native swamps where brave filmmakers dare to capture the essence of nature's most fearsome creature -the crocodile. The power of cine cameras transcends borders and conflicts too; it captures history unfolding before our eyes. In another mesmerizing scene depicted in colorful litho prints from "The Petit Journal, " we witness a film cameraman documenting events during the Russo-Japanese War in Manchuria. Through his lens, he immortalizes moments that will shape nations forever. But they are not limited to grand spectacles alone; they also celebrate simple joys like children dancing around a May Pole in vibrant color litho prints. These images remind us that cinema captures both monumental events and everyday wonders alike. France-Cinema continues its passionate affair with filmmaking throughout these glimpses into history – each frame telling its own unique story within this vast world of creativity and imagination.
