The Inner Odysseus of James Gray
A film by Claire Duguet
Coming soon on Ciné +
Aged 55, James Gray is one of the leading figures of the new generation of American independent cinema. From Little Odessa to Armageddon Time, in just eight films, he has explored a wide range of genres, including crime, science fiction, adventure, and intimate comedy. He has established his unique style, both classic and contemporary, blending nostalgia for the great American dream with sharp social critique. His rejection of Hollywood’s rules makes him a singular artist, and perhaps the most European of American filmmakers.
