Langlois monumental
Overview
On 13 January 1977, Henri Langlois died. For forty years, he had been the world's foremost film archivist, establishing the French Cinémathèque and its Museum of Cinema. Fourteen years later, on 13 January 1991, in the Montparnasse cemetery, his friends gathered to unveil his monument, a collage of photos on stone. The film records that day and includes testimonials from Marcel Carné, Samuel Fuller, and others, as well as archival footage of Langlois. At the dedication, they played a recording of Langlois' last interview: "[There can be] no compromise in art." Of Langlois Fuller says, "He was poetry."
