Description
 
Antonin Artaud (1896-1948) remains one of the most influential figures in 20th century art, theatre, and cinema. His influence is evident in the works of such theatre luminaries as Jean Genet and Peter Brook, and extends into the world of rock 'n' roll through artists like Jim Morrison and Patti Smith. This amazing collection sheds light on the enigmatic genius who penned some of theatre's most sacred texts, in addition to starring in early classics of world cinema. Includes My Life and Times with Antonin Artaud (Gerard Mordillat, 1993, 93 mins.), a moody dramatization starring Sami Frey. The True Story of Artaud the Momo (Gerard Mordillat and Jerome Prieur, 1993, 170 mins.) is a groundbreaking documentary which features fascinating recollections from friends and disciples. In French with English subtitles.
