Film, as an indisputable historical factor, exerts its influence thanks to its unique expressive means.
However, historians have only just begun to realize that film, whether it is a documentary or a fictional movie, with the explicit language it uses, makes the subtext accessible and constitutes an archive of invaluable historical significance.
From Renoir's The Great Illusion to Louis Malle's Naming: Lacombe, Name: Lucien, from the Jewish Spy to Carol Reed's The Third Man, from M: The Murderer by Fritz Lang to Cross of Iron by Kubrick, Marc Ferro highlights the multiple interactions between history and cinema that allow for a better understanding of older and contemporary societies.
