Description
Summary:La Bienne by Renoir, Jules et Jim de Truffaut, Father Christmas is a scum of Poiré, La Cage aux folles by Édouard Molinaro, Three men and a bassinet by Coline Serreau. So many scenarios taken up by the American cinema industry. Since the mid-1930s more than 70 remakes of French films have been made in Hollywood. Are these new versions a mark of Hollywood imperialism or a form of exchange between French cinema and American cinema? Certified copies? Adaptations? Or authentic Hollywood translations? How to understand this cinematographic phenomenon while taking into account its unstable contours, the diversity of cases? Raphaëlle Moine chooses to show her multiple facets, both legal, economic and historical, and adopts a cultural approach to restore the remake to all its richness. "Thanks to the remakes, French cinema as such and as a whole gains an emotion, a creativity, an inventiveness that criticism in general denies it".
