Is this from the same French documentary series as the Rivette episode you posted the other day (?), because the episode #s and subjects don’t seem to line up between them. [https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0815353/episodes/?ref_=tt_ov_ep_epl] Either way, each series — totaling either 50+ episodes, or 65+, if we are not referring to the same series (?) — look to be an amazing achievement. And very difficult to find, if findable at all, particularly with the EN subs. Perhaps because the series was little known outside of France ? (It’s hard to think of another country that would be taking on a comprehensive project like this.)
Anyway, thanks very much. So many of these profiles would be of interest — even if each of us is “cherry-picking” among episodes according to our own artist preferences.
