François Boyer (1920 - 24 May 2003) was a French screenwriter.
 He achieved considerable success with his first attempt at screenwriting, "Forbidden Games" (1952).
 Initially, he found no studio interested in his work, so he redesigned the screenplay as a novel and published it in 1947 under the title "The Secret Game".
 Although the novel achieved little or no success in its native country, it became a huge commercial success in America.
 All of a sudden, Boyer's novel was a hot property, so director René Clément, in conjunction with two writers Jean Aurenche and Pierre Bost, helped turn it into a screenplay.
 While Boyer receives story credit for the film, little is known of how much of his own screenplay made it to the screen.
 The film was a huge international success, and won an Honorary Oscar for the best foreign language film of its year.
Gervaise is a 1956 French film directed by René Clément based on the novel "L'Assommoir" by Émile Zola.
 It depicts a working-class woman in the mid-nineteenth century (played by Maria Schell) trying to cope with the descent of her husband (played by François Périer) into alcoholism.
 The film was nominated for the Best Foreign Language Film at the 29th Academy Awards.
 Schell won the Volpi Cup for Best Actress at the 1956 Venice Film Festival for her performance.

 The original novel was adapted again in 2008 by Rithy Panh as "The Sea Wall", starring Isabelle Huppert.
Jean Aurenche (1903–1992) was a French screenwriter.
 During his career, he wrote 80 films for directors such as René Clément, Bertrand Tavernier, Marcel Carné, Jean Delannoy, Sidney Lumet and Claude Autant Lara.
 He is often associated with the screenwriter Pierre Bost, with whom he had a fertile partnership from 1940 to 1975.

 The film stars Alain Delon in his first major film, along with Maurice Ronet (as Philippe Greenleaf) and Marie Laforêt (as Marge); Romy Schneider appears briefly in an uncredited role as Freddie Miles' companion, and Billy Kearns (an expatriate American actor well liked in France) plays Greenleaf's friend Freddy Miles.
 The film, principally in French, contains brief sequences in Italian.
