A Shared Cinema

In A Shared Cinema, legendary French critic Michel Ciment takes us on a journey through his life, beginning as a film-obsessed youngster in 1950s Paris and early experiences in the United States and as a teacher, through to his long-standing association with Positif magazine, his seminal interview books with Stanley Kubrick, John Boorman, Elia Kazan, Francesco Rosi and Jerry Schatzberg, his documentaries on Kazan, Joseph Mankiewicz and Billy Wilder, his decades-long work on television and radio, and his time as a juror and consultant at some of the world’s most important film festivals.
