About This Book

Starting from the paradox that her cinematographic pantheon is almost exclusively made up of men whose films deeply touch and inspire her, as a filmmaker but also as a spectator, Martine Doyen has taken up the game of feminizing the features of her idols to discover what they would be as women, failing to be able to imagine what their films could have been, if they had been, and while waiting for parity to settle in among film directors, this is a relief and allows us to continue to adore them because, basically, our great filmmakers are women too. Stay to savor this gallery of portraits while trying to recognize who hides behind each of these women in this who's who of international cinema

Partant du paradoxe que son panthéon cinématographique est quasi exclusivement composé d'hommes dont les films la touchent profondément et l'inspirent, en tant que cinéaste mais aussi en tant que spectatrice, Martine Doyen s'est prise au jeu de féminiser les traits de ses idoles pour découvrir ce qu'ils seraient en femmes, à défaut de pouvoir imaginer ce que leurs films auraient pu être, s'ils l'avaient été, et en attendant que s'installe la parité chez les réalisateurs et réalisatrices de films, cela soulage et permet de continuer à les adorer car, dans le fond, nos grands cinéastes sont des femmes aussi. reste à savourer cette galerie de portraits en tentant de reconnaître qui se cache derrière chacune de ces femmes dans ce who's who du cinéma international
