What are the characteristics of French films?

Poetic pictures, strong expressive force, scenery or background as an important role in the film, naturalism and subjectivism or symbolism metaphor.

French films, inspired by impressionist painting, try to express direct perceptual impressions with pictures. They don't pay attention to the story of the film, but pay attention to the creation of the atmosphere.

France was one of the first countries to invent movies. In 1894, two brothers, A. Lumiere and L. Lumiere, photographic equipment manufacturers in Lyon, made a movable film machine, which can not only show, but also shoot and develop negatives.
