The Complete Jean Vigo (Criterion Collection)

Even among cinemas greatest legends, Jean Vigo stands alone. The son of a notorious anarchist, Vigo had a brief but brilliant career making poetic, lightly surrealist films before his life was cut tragically short by tuberculosis at age twenty-nine. Like the daring early works of his contemporaries Jean Cocteau and Luis Bunuel, Vigos films refused to play by the rules. This set includes all of Vigos titles: A PROPOS DE NICE, ZERO DE CONDUITE, and LATALANTE.
