Une super lecture extrêmement intéressante. L'histoire d'Alice Guy, grande oubliée du cinéma, est aussi l'histoire de l'apparition des premiers films et l'histoire de l'émancipation des femmes. Je recommande vivement cette lecture pour les amoureux du cinéma, de l'histoire, du féminisme ou les trois en même temps !

Another story of an inspiring yet hidden figure whose work and talent deeply contributed to the development of cinema and art—so progressive and brave for that time! A nice read.

Viene bien informarse, pero me ha faltado algo.

I had never heard of Alice Guy before reading this graphic novel, which is a real shame because she's a fascinating woman who trailblazed so much of the film industry; she had some serious gumption in her and is very admirable for pushing through in what was very much a man's world.
It was a little difficult to tell some characters apart - especially since everyone had the same facial hair and men wore suits that all looked alike - which I think would've been made easier with some light colorization.
I'll admit I only skimmed the timeline and biographical notes, but you can tell that they're well researched and full of information on film history's players.

Encore un autre très intéressant pour Catel et Bocquet. Je ne connaissais pas du tout Alice Guy et j'ai trouvé cet album passionnant et enrageant à la fois. Ah, cette manie de l'histoire d'oublier les femmes!

Die Biografie interessiert sich leider weniger für die Filme als für die Kindheit und Jugend der ersten Filmregisseurin aller Zeiten. Für meinen Geschmack zu viel Einblick ins Private und zu wenig Fokus auf das Künstlerische. Der Stil verliebt in Häuserfronten steht in keinem erkennbaren Zusammenhang zum Thema.
Insgesamt: Hauptsache Alice Guy-Blaché bekommt auf irgendeine Weise das Spotlight, das sie verdient.

Dieses Buch ist ein ziemlicher Trümmer mit seinen über 400 Seiten. Der Inhalt ist ziemlich beeindruckend und zeigt, wie Alice Guy sich in der Branche behauptete, nur um dann vergessen zu werden.
Im Anhang sind noch einmal alle Daten und Kurzbiografien der Charaktere zu sehen und zu lesen.
