DIRECTORS WHO EXPLORE THIS
François Truffaut France

His films of the 1970s, including 'Day for Night' and 'The Story of Adèle H.', capture the essence of French cinema and society during this transformative decade.

 Claude Chabrol France

A master of French psychological thrillers throughout the 1970s, his works deeply examine bourgeois French society and morality with distinctly Gallic sensibilities.
