What if the magic of cinema was partly linked to painting? To the paintings that the director sometimes revisits before putting his screenplay into images, to the pictorial works or atmospheres that impose themselves on the spectators when watching certain films. This book was born from these crossed perspectives between the seventh art and painting, where the filmic image hides or reveals a pictorial image. In this exercise, almost all the great cinematographic movements have distinguished themselves because very many are the directors who have developed, consciously or not, an aesthetic in affinity with the silent and immobile art that is painting. From the Lumière brothers to David Lynch, a fascinating study on the fertile relationships between painting and cinema.
