Napoleon Bonaparte
(1934)
Starring: Albert Dieudonne, Gina Manes, Antonin Artaud
Director: Abel Gance
Certificate: 
Surprising Film, I saw this on a retrospective, years ago, and eventually bought a copy from Australia. A Breadth of idea and cinematography, rare then and now.The multiscreen effects struggle to stay together, am sure the BFI could repair this into a stunning print, but it shows a vision of the enormity the directer beheld The Soundstrack is way too American for a French Film, but there you go, well worth seeing
