About This Item

Margins slightly sunned, otherwise fine in near very good, lightly soiled dust jacket with edge wear including modertate losses mostly at the bottom of the rear panel.
"It is impossible to discuss the history of the film without giving serious attention to the enormous role plahed by Rene Clair. "His films," writes Penelope Houston, "must have afforded more sheer pleasure than those of almost any other director one cares to name." ~Excerpted from the dust jacket.
