Zusammenfassung: | The Mystery of the Rocks of Kador (1912): "The Mystery of the Rocks of Kador" is a self-referential film that includes cinema as a concept at its very heart. The director himself plays the part of Fernand de Kéranic, who poisons his ward, Suzanne, and shoots her would-be lover, Jean, in order to claim an inheritance. When they are washed up on the shore together, she’s become catatonic and he is too wounded to be of any use to the police. The mystery is solved by the police, led by the maverick Professor Williams, "filming" the incident as a reconstruction and then showing it to Suzanne, who is then cured of her condition. It’s a neat visual trick and in-joke, and considering cinema at this point was still incredibly young, Perret was certainly ahead of his time, using it as a means of exploring more unconventional and experimental ideas. After a short-lived excursion to Hollywood in the late 1910s, Perret returned to France to consolidate the future of French cinema. Unfortunately he died shortly after the sound era commenced. [intogreatsilents.wordpress.com] The Child of Paris (1913): Probably Perret’s best known film, "The Child of Paris" is an impressive melodrama with a warm sense of empathy at its heart. When a young girl loses both her parents - her father in war, her mother to a grief-assisted illness, she is sent to a boarding school where she doesn’t fit in and often gets into trouble. Fleeing, she runs into a group of low-life criminals. Bosco, the hunchback cobbler shows her compassion and friendship - something that has been denied him - in a cruel, cold outside world. When her father returns (he was presumed dead, but merely held captive), these criminals use the girl as a means of extorting money from the father; a plan that didn’t anticipate Bosco’s intervention. "The Child of Paris" is yet another astonishing feature by Perret. It is filmed on location in Paris and Nice, utilising all the techniques we’d seen in "The Mystery of the Rocks of Kador" - high/low camera angles, lighting, etc and demonstrating some nice visual touches, such as the cut from the use of binoculars by the father to see the rebels he’s fighting to the rebels themselves in close up; as well as the set up of the camera to show the artificial separation of the bedrooms of the girl and her captor. For all the technical wonder however, its the tender and moving backbone of the narrative that’s just as astounding. [intogreatsilents.wordpress.com] |
