Omschrijving
Author José-Louis Bocquetand award-winning artistCatel Muller's graphic biography tells the inspiring story of Alice Guy, the first female movie director in film history, chronicling her contribution to the birth of cinema in France in the late 19th century. In 1895, the Lumière brothers invented the cinematograph. Less than a year later, 23-year-old Alice Guy, the first female filmmaker in cinema history, made The Cabbage Fairy, a 60-second movie, for Léon Gaumont, and would go on to direct more than 300 films before 1922. Guy's life is a shadow history of early cinema, the chronicle of an art form coming into its own. A free and independent woman who rubbed shoulders with masters such as Georges Méliès and the Lumières, she was the first to define the professions of screenwriter and producer. She directed the first feminist satire, then the first sword-and-sandal epic, before crossing the Atlantic in 1907 to the United States and becoming the first woman to found her own production company. Guy died in 1969, excluded from the annals of film history. In 2011, Martin Scorsese honored this cinematic visionary "forgotten by the industry she had helped create," describing her as "a filmmaker of rare sensitivity, with a remarkable poetic eye and an extraordinary feel for locations." The same can be said of Catel and Bocquet's luminous account of her life.
