L'Homme Atlantique de Marguerite Duras par Gérard Courant (2012)
Synopsis
Made in 1981, before Dialogues de Rome , her last cinematic work, L'Homme Atlantique is Marguerite Duras's penultimate film (Les Enfants, filmed in 1983 and often wrongly attributed to her, is a film she merely supervised and which is credited to her son Jean Mascolo and Jean-Marc Turine). L'Homme Atlantique is the most radical film by the author of Hiroshima Mon Amour . It is partly composed of outtakes from Agatha , her previous film, and primarily of black images. The soundtrack is a reading by Marguerite Duras herself of her text L'Homme Atlantique, which was published in 1982 by Les Éditions de Minuit. I had discovered this film at the Hyères International Young Cinema Festival and I had the opportunity to dedicate a column to it for the magazine Cinéma 82, in issue 277, dated January 1982. Marguerite Duras's L'Homme Atlantique by Gérard Courant is a filming of this text on a title bench, interspersed with black images. (G.C.)
