This disc is probably considered an absolute must for cinephiles. It features the very first films of several French directors who would go on to become household names in international cinema. I was intrigued and eventually fascinated by the initial offerings of these masters. It was easy to see what differentiated them from similar colleagues but also how their styles became so coherent and identifiable. I can't image any fan of French cinema not owning this.
