L'enfance nue (1968) France DVDR Disc1

L'enfance nue (1968) aka Naked Childhood IMDB - http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0065695/ Abandoned by his own parents, Francois, a nine-year old boy, is placed in the care of Mr and Mrs Josselin, an ordinary working class family with a young daughter of their own. The Josselins learn that Francois has serious behavioural problems and he soon becomes too much for them to cope with. As the boy’s unruly conduct worsens, he is returned to social services and ends up with another adopted home. His new foster parents are Mr and Mrs Minguet, an old couple who already have their hands full with their elderly mother and another foster child, Raoul. For once, Francois appears to become settled and manages to find a genuine friend in the Minguets' frail but kind-hearted mother. However, when the latter dies, Francois’ behaviour suddenly takes a turn for the worse… Director: Maurice Pialat Writers: Arlette Langmann, Maurice Pialat Genre: Drama Awards: 1 win more Cast: Michel Terrazon (Francois), Linda Gutemberg (Simone), Raoul Billerey (Roby), Pierrette Deplanque (Josette), Marie-Louise Thierry (Madame Minguet), Rene Thierry (Minguet), Henri Puff (Raoul), etc. Extras Interview with Arlette Langmann and Patrick Grandperret (6:24) Two of Pialat’s collaborators talk about where the director’s interest in the subject came from and his approach to scripting and shooting the film. Short Film: L’amour existe (19:03) Pialat’s first film, a short documentary feature from 1960, anticipates themes not only in L’Enfance nue but also in La gueule ouverte. An examination of the poverty and deprivation in the post-war suburbs of Paris, Pialat shows his interest in little people with their basic needs and lifestyles, at the same time capturing the almost surreal quality of life in the margins of society. His consideration of the impact on children growing up in this concrete landscape is relevant as a historical and social document on the problems that have subsequently grown out of the banlieues. The transfer of the film, non-anamorphic but letterboxed, is excellent.
