India (duras Complete Works 7)
About This Novel
This is a love story, this is not just a love story. "India: The Complete Works of Duras 7" is the seventh volume of "The Complete Works of Duras". It is named "India" and includes four representative film scripts created by Duras in the 1970s: "Song of India", "Nathalie Grande", "Ladies from the Ganges" and "Truck". "Song of India" is a play that established Duras's status as a film director. It was created in 1973. The story revolves around Anne-Marie Street, wife of the French Ambassador to India, and three friends around her. "Nathalie Grande" is Duras's transformational work as a film director. It was created in 1973 and was shot in Duras's residence in the same year. This is a work about women, with a very classical style. The appendix includes "Women of the Ganges" in the form of a screenplay for "Amour", which was filmed in Trouville-sur-Mer where Duras lived in the same year. "Truck" was created in 1977 and includes the film's script, shooting instructions and related conversations with Michel Poulter. Two characters, played by famous movie stars Gérard Depardieu and Duras, sit in a room with the doors and windows closed, and the conversation alternates between shots of trucks driving around Paris and stopping to offer rides, and verbal descriptions of a potential film alternating with images of what it might form.
