Language: French or English

Admired by many cinephile filmmakers from Martin Scorsese to John Carpenter, Jacques Tourneur still remains somewhat unappreciated. Only his great horror or science-fiction movies (Cat People, I Walked with a Zombie, The Leopard Man, Curse of the Demon) are still widely beloved. This illustrated volume, written by specialists from different countries, offers you a chance to rediscover the filmmaker's work through a new lens.
The book was published alongside the retrospective dedicated to Jacques Tourneur by the Locarno Film Festival in 2017, curated by Rinaldo Censi and Roberto Turigliatto.
The book was edited by Fernando Ganzo and features contributions from Rinaldo Censi, Carlo Chatrian, Pierre Eugène, Chris Fujiwara, Pierre Gabaston, Fernando Ganzo, Hervé Gauville, Haden Guest, Pierre Jailloux, Petr Král, Mariano Llinás, Mathieu Macheret, Paola Raiman, Jean-François Rauger, Pierre Rissient, Patrice Rollet.
