    Rules of the Game (La Règle du Jeu), directed by Jean Renoir, is one of the greatest movies ever made. In this video I show you how Renoir achieved deep focus cinematography, and how he blocked actors and moved the camera.

    This is my favorite TH-cam channel. You, Sir, are a wonderful teacher, both because you explain well, and because you have such deep insight into your subject matter, but also because you instill confidence. Thanks so much.

    Absolutely gorgeous compositions in the academy ratio 1.37:1. It must have been incredible work to get the actors to hit their marks at exactly the right time, with fluidity and good acting. No digital stitching together and post production back in the 1930s, but professional film cameras and lenses already produced incredible quality.
    Thanks for pointing out this movie and for breaking down the cinematography and blocking. Need to watch it in the best quality possible ASAP.

    Looks fascinating! I'm downloading the movie right now. The camera work looks very busy. Kinda surprising for 1939. UGH! I just remembered the shaky, handheld shots that got so popular a few years ago. So glad all that's over!

    Thank you for enriching my enjoyment of the film. I do wish, despite the ambitions of the director, that the central metaphor was a dance (or even a ballet) rather than a game. The dance aspect interests me more than the lofty idea of it being a game (let alone, having rules!).
    This delightful analysis of the film's visual construction reinforces my thoughts even more. Who am I to question the great Jean Renoir?!? But each of us are entitled to a perspective, aren't we?

    I want a special PDF :) I will look into becoming a member and would pay for a year if I did. I very much enjoy a PDF to help illustrate different points of film study and techniques. Are PDF downloads typically offered? I love how you reference the grates... looking forward to learning more from you.

    Interesting audio pacing listening at 1.4x to the narration. Like an overlayed native speech factor multiplied. Something to be learned here, just not sure what that is? (I found it irritating) Deep focus, had to apply that yesterday, no ND filters.

  • @williamkyburz

    good video, but it begs the question : who is doing what? the director or the cinematographer? Jean Renoir was the director, Alphen and Bachelet were the cinematographers (I believe Jean's son Alain also did some of the filming). Today, who controls the composition of the characters? The director or the cinematographer? Do you have any videos that answer this question. Best wishes.

    Thanks for your work but I really didn't get why you kept comparing Citizen Kane with this film. Did you need to compare it to another masterpiece? Additionally, you claim that the depth of focus used in Citizen Kane was unnecessary (it was not :) ). Why did you need to attack Citizen Kane? Anyone can admire both films without degrading the other.

    What an artificial intellectual little game it becomes eventually.Eisenstein's formalist theories and their rigid rules made his movies extremely artificial and dead pictures as his career progressed.Unfortunate that towards the end he couldnt finish his Mexican epic,it would have become the his most lasting artistic creation brimming with life.Thank god Renoir didnt succumb to this.Of course unlike Eisentein he was always fascinated in capturing life right from the starting short films

    This movie has some cool stuff going on with the technical aspects and structure but it's so shallow otherwise. So much time spent to say almost nothing.

    • @ookiemand
      @ookiemand 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Maybe we don't get a lot of the 1939's references? maybe things are said in different ways? Maybe the things they say mean nothing to today's culture?

    • @TheRadioSquare
      @TheRadioSquare 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@ookiemand if the film requires a mindset and context of being a French person in late 30s France I'd argue it aged pretty badly and isn't gonna enjoyable for an overwhelming majority of people, which is probably why it doesn't come up too often outside of talks about cinematography. Nosferatu probably means more to a German person in early 20th century but it manages to be a captivating movie even without that which rules of the game can't really pull off.
