1958202433Editions du Rocher 1958. 1st Edition. Hardcover. 11.2 x 22 cm grey paper wraps with red decoration and black titles to the front 37 1pp with erratum tipped in. The half title contains a red and blue profile portrait drawn by the artist with a personal inscription reading. ' à George/ Wright Hall /cet essai de solitude et de/ porter le poise à la/ hauteur d'une sucrie exacte./ avec l'amitie/ de Jean Cocteau'. The pamphlet also comes with its original mailing envelope written by Cocteau with his return address in Saint Jean Cap Ferrat France. There is a light horizontal mark just up from the end of the "S" of "DIALOGUES" and across onto the spine and a round mark immediately below the bottom triangle slightly right of centre on the front cover. Otherwise it is in at least near fine condition. The envelope is addressed by Cocteau to his friend George Wright Hall 1895-1974 who had studied in Edinburgh in the early 1920s and was a member of the 1922 Group. It bears its original stamps and Cocteau's return address. The envelope has been opened along the top and both side are now open too. The two sides of it remain partially joined along the bottom edge but this has been conserved by the application of Japanese paper. In all a lovely inscribed item complete with the envelope Cocteau used to send it and which has helped to keep the book so well preserved. Rainford & Parris Books welcomes enquiries so please do not hesitate to ask if you require further images or have any questions. All books are packaged with great care. Editions du Rocher hardcover

1949170399Paris: Objectif 49 / La Cinémathèque Française 1949. Vintage program for the Festival du film maudit held in Biarritz from July 29 through August 5 1949 by French avant-garde cinema club Objectif 49. SIGNED on the title page by Objectif 49 co-founder Jean Cocteau: "Souvenir de Jean Cocteau / 1949" "A token from Jean Cocteau / 1949". Text and titles in French.<br /> <br /> Objectif 49 was founded in Paris after the close of the Second World War. Although only active for two years the club's influence was significant in no small part due to its lofty goals-the promotion of new avant-garde films the reevaluation of uncommercial and "failed" films the foundation of alternative institutions for educating film audiences and most broadly the creation of entirely new systems for distributing and exhibiting cinema in France. The group staged over 40 one-night events three festivals and counted Robert Bresson Eric Rohmer René Clement Jean Grémillon and many other cinematic and literary luminaries among its ranks.<br /> <br /> Organized by Cocteau and co-founder André Bazin with a name drawn from Mallarmé's "poètes maudits" "cursed poets" the Festival du film maudit was Objectif 49's most important public event intended to be a rival to the Cannes Film Festival. Held at the posh Grand Casino on the coast the festival was notably attended by then-little-known filmmakers Jacques Rivette and François Truffaut who were accompanied in by Cocteau himself having initially failed to make their way past the doorman due to their "bohemian" behavior and attire. Films screened included Kenneth Anger's "Fireworks" Jean Grémillon's "Lumière d'été" Robert Montgomery's "Ride the Pink Horse" Jacques Tati's "Jour de fête" Jean Vigo's "Zéro de conduite" and "L'Atalante" among many others.<br /> <br /> In the wake of the festival's success "film maudit" became a term of praise used by "Cahiers du cinéma" writers in the 1950s and the term was later adopted by the publication's American counterparts. The festival would be re-staged the following year but Cocteau and Bazin were not involved and the event was less well received. <br /> <br /> A memento from a transitional time in the cinema of postwar France in which the foundations were laid for the proliferation of New Wave avant-garde and experimental films and film culture in the years to come.<br /> <br /> 11 x 9 inches. 40 pages. Very Good plus or better in wrappers with a string binding. Objectif 49 / La Cinémathèque Française unknown
