La Règle du jeu
Satyajit Ray called it "a film that doesn't wear its innovations on its sleeve ... Humanist? Classical? "Avant-Garde"? Contemporary? I defy anyone to give it a label. This is the kind of innovation that appeals to me." Other notable filmmakers who have praised it include Bernardo Bertolucci, Wim Wenders, Peter Bogdanovich, Noah Baumbach and Cameron Crowe. Henri Cartier-Bresson, who worked on the film before beginning a long career as a photojournalist, called it "one of the summits of art and a premonition of everything that was to happen in the world." Robert Altman said ""The Rules of the Game" taught me the rules of the game."
