Le Cinéma Club Virgil Vernier is one of the singular new voices in French cinema – a keen observer of globalized Europe whose work blends fiction, documentary and myth. He films contemporary characters in an understated style sensitive to the landscapes and history that have shaped them, and leaving open the possibility for these subjects to surprise or captivate us.

Virgil Vernier sent us the following text to introduce his film: “I did the casting based on party pictures posted on the Instagram account of a nightclub, the fanciest one in Geneva.

Pernille Røge, “Economistes and the Reinvention of Empire: France in the Americas and Africa c. 1750-1802” (Cambridge UP, 2019) In her new book, Economistes and the Reinvention of Empire: France in the Americas and Africa, c. 1750-1802 (Cambridge UP, 2020), Dr. Pernille Røge charts the confluence and reciprocal impacts of ideas and policies espoused by political economists, colonial administrators, planters, and entrepreneurs to reform the French empire in the second half of the eighteenth century.

While meeting initial resistance, such reform efforts inspired many imperial agendas enacted by French Revolutionary leaders as well as those by subsequent French imperialists.

Greaves films himself, his actors, and his crew at work in Central Park, interacting with one another and with whomever happens to be there, and also includes the crew’s own critique of his methods and even his character. “Original Cast Album: Company” (1970, D.

Episode 292: Craft in Early America - Ben Franklin's World What was everyday life like for those who lived in early America? To get at the everyday lives of early Americans we need to look at the goods they made and how they produced those goods.
