It's the late fifties and early sixties and throughout Europe cinema is having a major moment
At the halfway point of The Story of Film, Mark Cousins heads to Europe. It’s the late fifties and early sixties and cinema is about to be shaken up with thoroughly dynamic styles.
In the wake of Italian Neorealism, Fellini, Pasolini and Sergio Leone receive huge international acclaim. In Sweden, Ingmar Bergman really hits his stride. And, in France the nouvelle vague crashes down.
