Hollywood classics and literature

The classics of Hollywood cinema influenced the writing of my fiction Duel à Albi.

In the story, I refer to several films such as:

– Morocco

– The Devil’s Garden

– Friendly persuasion

The script of some films is inspired by literature.

– For Whom the Bell Tolls based on Ernest Hemingway’s novel

– Peter Ibbetson based on the novel by George Dumaurier

I chose evocative titles in line with the sassy tone of the dialogue. They thus participate in creating the fantastic dimension in which I wanted to immerse my short story and the public.

For the documentation part, I made an appointment at a film library to read some extracts from books which gave me some information.

biographies about film actors and actresses

Thank you to the film libray Jean Vigo.
