''Paris Belongs to Us'' ((フランス語:Paris nous appartient), sometimes translated as ''Paris Is Ours'') is a 1960 French mystery film directed by Jacques Rivette and starring Betty Schneider. Begun in 1957 and completed three years later, it was then-critic Rivette's first full-length film as a director and one of the first works of the French New Wave, though it was not released theatrically until 1961. The plot centres on a group of actors rehearsing Shakespeare's Pericles for a performance that never happens. The film operates as a depiction of bohemian Parisian life in the late 1950s, framed in a frightening world-view coloured by anxiety and fatigue, paranoia and disillusionment. Like fellow ''Cahiers du cinéma'' critic Eric Rohmer, Rivette did not find popularity with his early films and, unlike many of his New Wave compatriots, he remained at ''Cahiers'' for most of the core New Wave era (1958–1968) and completed only two other features during the period. The film features cameos by fellow New Wave directors Claude Chabrol (who co-produced the film), Jean-Luc Godard, Jacques Demy and Rivette himself. Writing in the film journal ''Senses of Cinema'', critic Hamish Ford said of the film: "...for me at least, his debut feature is a perfect film in its way. If the first work of a long career should, at least in the oeuvre-charting rear-vision mirror, offer an appropriately characteristic or even perhaps idiosyncratic entry point into a distinct film-world, then ''Paris nous appartient'' is indeed a perfect 'first' Rivette in its combination of formal daring and conceptual elusiveness."〔(Paris nous appartient ) by Hamish Ford at Senses of Cinema〕 ==Cast== * Betty Schneider as Anne Goupil * Giani Esposito as Gerard Lenz * Françoise Prévost as Terry Yordan * Daniel Crohem as Philip Kaufman * François Maistre as Pierre Goupil * Jean-Claude Brialy as Jean-Marc 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Paris Belongs to Us」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
