La Petite histoire du crime au Qu. LOUIS MALLE - Films & Bio. Malle was born in 1. Thumeries, near to Lille in northern France. During the war, he attended a Catholic boarding school in Paris. After leaving school, he began a degree course in political science at the Institute D’Etudes Politiques in Paris, but, against his parents’ wishes, switched to a course on film studies at the Institut des Hautes Etudes Cinematographiques. While still a student, he was recruited as a camera operator by underwater explorer, Jacques Cousteau. He worked as co- director on Cousteau’s celebrated documentary film, Le Monde du Silence (The Silent World) which won an Oscar and the Palme d’Or at the 1. Academy Awards and Cannes Film Festival respectively, before working as an assistant for his hero, legendary director Robert Bresson on Un condamn. This experience served him well as an apprenticeship for his first feature, Ascenseur pour l'. Not for the last time Malle showed himself an excellent judge of collaborators, working with an array of talent including novelist Rogier Nimier, cinematographer Henri Decae, up- and- coming actors Jeanne Moreau and Maurice Ronet, and jazz genius Miles Davis. Together they took what could have been a routine film policier and turned it into a bitterly ironic, tragic film noir that was a critical and commercial success and established Malle as a young director to be reckoned with. The film also showed, especially in the evocative scenes of her walking down the Champs . In his next feature, Les Amants (The Lovers, 1. Malle confirmed that potential, casting her as the married mother who walks out on her family for a younger man. While more classical in style than its predecessor, its frank for its time sexual content, as well as its moral ambiguity, created a major scandal. In America it was banned in several states leading to a landmark U. S. Supreme Court case regarding the legal definition of obscenity. The scandal helped the film become a worldwide phenomenon, turning Moreau into a major star and Malle, at the age of only 2. Taken by surprise at the film’s success, Malle had a tough time recovering. He was suspicious that the success had not been deserved and for six months he went into hiding, scouting locations for a film that was never shot. When he finally settled on his next project it was a radical change of gear from what had come before. 06.99.78.50.57 - MAGNETISME, avec un peu de volont Un crime capital est un crime passible de la peine de mort. L’expression est ancienne, on la retrouvait en France dans l'ordonnance criminelle de 1670, et elle se. Many considered it unfilmable but Malle decided to take up the challenge because he believed it would give him a chance to explore cinematic language in a way he hadn’t been able to before. The result was a high- energy comedy full of wit and invention, which anticipated and greatly influenced the new trend in film style and technique, which would emerge in the ensuing decade. One critic, who wrote favourably about Zazie dans Le Metro, despite its failure with the public, was Francois Truffaut, now an established director himself after the success of the Les Quatre cents coups (The Four Hundred Blows, 1. Although he was not a member of the inner circle of what had now come to be known as the New Wave, Malle was of the same generation and shared much in common with the other directors, in particular a love for the great auteur directors and a desire to break with what had become routine in French cinema at the time. After Zazie, Malle was invited by a producer, Christine Gouze- R. LE PRESIDENT DE LA REPUBLIQUE; Vu la Constitution de la R Although warned against working with her, Malle agreed to direct the project which came to be called La Vie Priv.

Feeling disoriented after the failure of Vie priv. He spent four months in Algeria filming events surrounding the French withdrawal from the former colony but wasn’t pleased with what he shot and didn’t end up editing it. Also that year, he filmed the Tour de France bicycle race, which resulted in a twenty minute short. In the autumn of 1. Paris and started writing a screenplay about a young man who commits suicide.

Maurice Ronet in the lead role, was highly praised, winning the Special Jury Prize at the 1. Venice Film Festival. Malle later described the film as one of his most personal and the first of his works that he was completely happy with. In a pattern that was becoming characteristic of him, Malle’s next film was very different. Set during the Mexican revolution, Viva Maria (1. Brigitte Bardot and Jeanne Moreau as travelling music hall performers who become involved in the revolution. The publicity generated by the presence of two such big stars meant the shoot was constantly interrupted by an army of press corps taking photographs and looking for a story. Malle was ultimately dissatisfied with the result even though the film did well internationally. He later admitted that the reason he made the film was because he couldn’t resist the challenge, although he wouldn’t do it again. One positive aspect of the film was the working relationship Malle developed with the screenwriter Jean- Claude Carri. Their next project together was Le Voleur (The Thief, 1. Georges Darien, about a gentleman thief. Despite lavish production values and an engaging performance by Jean- Paul Belmondo, the film was not well received.

In order to get away from France for a while, he agreed to direct Alain Delon in one of three segments of a film based on stories by Edgar Allan Poe being filmed in Italy.

They immersed themselves in the life and culture of India for six months ending up with 3. Calcutta (1. 96. 9), and a seven part TV series called L’Inde Fantome (Phantom India, 1. The films provoked a storm of controversy in India when they were shown on the BBC for focusing too much on the poverty of the country. Others, however, were spellbound by the scope and imagery of the documentaries and many were inspired to visit the country themselves. For the first of these, Le Souffle au Coeur (Murmur of the Heart, 1. Dijon. Funny, high- spirited and sympathetic with an exhilarating jazz soundtrack, the film nevertheless caused controversy for it’s depiction of incest. His next film was in its way equally controversial, but on a political level: the experience of the war and collaboration in France. Lacombe, Lucien (1. Gestapo in a small town. The film was groundbreaking because it was the first to deal with the issue of collaboration in wartime France, challenging the myth that most people resisted Nazi occupation, and provoking a great deal of debate in France on its release.
