The fascinating memoir of influential French filmmaker Alice Guy Blaché, one of the industry’s most significant pioneers and a trailblazer for female directors. Alice Guy Blaché (1873-1968) is a unique pioneer of the motion picture, being not only a female filmmaker but also one of the first, if not the first, to make a narrative film. Her career spanned from 1894, when she became secretary to the legendary Léon Gaumont, through 1920, working in both her native France and the United States. In all, she was responsible for approximately 1,000 films, possibly more than any other director or producer. The Memoirs of Alice Guy Blaché was first published in 1976, and to a large extent led to her rediscovery after decades of relative obscurity. Guy Blaché writes of her beginnings in the motion picture industry, her direction not only of silent films but also some of the earliest synchronized sound motion pictures, her marriage and journey to the United States, the founding of her own studio in New Jersey, her fame, and the sad journey into obscurity in the 1920s. Her story reveals both the opportunities and the ultimate rejection facing a woman director in the early years of the twentieth century. These first-hand and original memoirs are enhanced with a complete filmography, an epilogue by her daughter Simone, a brief biography of her director husband, Herbert Blaché, a remembrance by feminist actress/writer Madame Olga Petrova, a sampling of contemporary articles on the director, and a new foreword by editor Anthony Slide. Through it all, Alice Guy Blaché’s personal charm, good humor, and modesty shines.

Alice Guy BlachT (1873-1968), the world's first woman filmmaker, was one of the key figures in the development of narrative film. From 1896 to 1920 she directed 400 films (including over 100 synchronized sound films), produced hundreds more, and was the first--and so far the only--woman to own and run her own studio plant (The Solax Studio in Fort Lee, NJ, 1910-1914). However, her role in film history was completely forgotten until her own memoirs were published in 1976. This new book tells her life story and fills in many gaps left by the memoirs. Guy BlachT's life and career mirrored momentous changes in the film industry, and the long time-span and sheer volume of her output makes her films a fertile territory for the application of new theories of cinema history, the development of film narrative, and feminist film theory. The book provides a close analysis of the one hundred Guy BlachT films that survive, and in the process rewrites early cinema history.

A beautifully written and deeply sensitive biography of Alice Guy Blache, now regarded as the mother of cinema, and Gustave Eiffel, two compelling figures in Paris at the beginning of the 20th century.During a time when business was dominated by men, Alice Guy Blaché wrote and directed hundreds of films in Paris for the Gaumont film company, and then continued her career as the first female film director in New York and Fort Lee, New Jersey before the film industry moved to Hollywood. Gustave Eiffel, whose name is synonymous with his famous tower, advanced both the business and technology of motion pictures. He was a founding partner of Gaumont and president of the company from its inception in 1895 until 1907 when Alice left for the United States.Using clear, flowing language and a wealth of historically accurate detail, Janelle Dietrick draws on memoirs, autobiographical texts, correspondence, and interviews to create an intimate portrait of these two remarkable people. The result is a unique love story in another time and place--Alice and Eiffel in the context of Belle Époque Paris where they shared a glittering social life, family ties, work, and a deep bond. This double biography will be of great interest to those specializing in early cinema and anyone interested in the enigmas that are Alice Guy Blaché and Gustave Eiffel.

Eine Graphic Novel über den außergewöhnlichen Werdegang der ersten Regisseurin der Kinogeschichte. Alice Guy (1873–1968) war die erste Filmregisseurin der Welt, ebenso die erste Produzentin und Drehbuchautorin. Sie inszenierte und produzierte an die 500 Filme, agierte in einigen frühen davon auch in Nebenrollen. Bis 1907 war sie Produktionsleiterin der französischen Firma Gaumont, die von 1905 bis 1915 das größte Studio der Welt besaß. 1910 gründete sie in New York die Solax, ihr eigenes Studio, in dem mehr als 300 Filme aller Couleur inszeniert wurden. 1896 drehte Alice Guy mit »La Fée aux Choux« den vermutlich ersten Spielfilm der Filmgeschichte. 1906 realisierte sie die Großproduktion »La Vie du Christ« mit über dreihundert Statisten. Zwischen 1900 und 1906 inszenierte sie ca. 100 Phonoszenen und erwies sich damit überdies als Pionierin des Tonfilms. Sie gehörte zu den ersten, die mit Tricktechnik experimentierten, verwendete Split-Screens, Zeitraffer und Zeitlupe, Stopptrick, Doppelbelichtung und Rückwärtsbewegungen. Trotzdem wird Alice Guys Œuvre noch Jahrzehnte nach ihrem Tod von der Filmgeschichtsschreibung unterschlagen oder ihren männlichen Mitarbeitern zugeschrieben. Catel Muller und José-Louis Bocquet korrigieren in ihrer Comicbiografie diese Irrtümer und erinnern an die außergewöhnliche Filmemacherin, die den Bildern das Laufen lehrte. Mit einem Vorwort von Sven Jachmann und einem ausführlichen Anhang.

Catel y Bocquet firman la biografía gráfica de una mujer excepcional que merece ser celebrada y reconocida: Alice Guy fue la primera directora de cine, y su vida y obra son primordiales para entender el nacimiento del séptimo arte . Mujer libre e independiente, Alice Guy fue testigo y pieza clave en el nacimiento del séptimo arte, y se codeó con nombres tan reconocidos como Gustave Eiffel, Louis y Auguste Lumière, Georges Méliès, Charlie Chaplin y Buster Keaton. Distinguida con la Legión de Honor, pero sin poseer ninguna de sus creaciones, falleció en 1969, perdida y olvidada. Catel y Bocquet contribuyen con Alice Guy a la recuperación histórica de su figura, y vuelven a poner su arte y su sensibilidad al servicio del feminismo, para rescatar este nombre borrado de uno de los capítulos más importantes del mundo moderno. «El primer niño que tuvo la idea de colocar sus manitas frente a una fuente de luz, moviendo los dedos para ver su sombra desproporcionadamente grande bailando en la pared, inventó el cinematógrafo». Alice Guy La crítica ha dicho: «El trabajo de documentación siempre es impresionante y la línea de Catel siempre precisa. Era necesario recuperar a esta artista». Lire Magazin «Un esfuerzo formidable sobre una gran creadora, que refleja escrupulosamente tanto los inicios del cine como los de Alice Guy». Le Monde «Después de más de cien años casi en el olvido, Alice Guy por fin es el centro de atención: gracias a esta novela gráfica, el gran público descubrirá a la primera directora de cine». Libération «La biografía de una mujer apasionante y apasionada, curiosa y decidida. Catel y Bocquet iluminan de manera sensible e hiperdocumentada, sin perderse nunca en los detalles, [...] la dificultad de ser una mujer apartada en un mundo casi exclusivamente masculino».

Winner of the Literary TItan Book Award gold medal.A deeply evocative story inspired by real events: the love affair between two unforgettable people--Gustave Eiffel, the builder of the Eiffel Tower, and Alice Guy Blaché, the first female filmmaker, a silent film pioneer. Mademoiselle Alice steps out of the shadows into the reader's mind as an endlessly intriguing and entirely relatable young woman. Told through Alice's eyes, we get to know her, her family, and Monsieur Eiffel. Eiffel is not looking to fall in love--he is a widower who has everything--wit, wealth, fame, and brilliance. He was a friend of Alice's father who died when she was seventeen, and the story she tells of falling in love with him is funny and emotionally intimate. Alice and Eiffel forge an enduring romantic and intellectual bond. But while she wants to marry him, he refuses because he is so much older than she is. Out of herdesire to have a family, she marries a handsome Englishman and travels to the United States, where she works with D. W. Griffith and then opens her own film studio. Some of her emotional experiences find expression in the scenarios she writes for film. Her relationship with Monsieur Eiffel continues on in her mind and leads to some surprising developments. Mademoiselle Alice tells us much about women's lives during the silent film era in France and the United States. Combining a biographer's knowledge of her subject with the novelist's gift for narrative, Janelle Dietrick has crafted a novel that will capture the interest of every reader.
