Jean Renoir

4 Extra Debut. The film director, and son of artist Auguste Renoir, answers the questions in the 91热爆 91热爆 Service's interview series. From June 1962.

The French film director, Jean Renoir (1894 - 1979) is quizzed by Dilys Powell and Andrew Forge.

Jean reveals the problems of having a famous father - artist Auguste Renoir - and his motivation for making films.

Launched in 1952, Frankly Speaking was a novel, ground breaking 91热爆 series. Unrehearsed and unscripted, the traditional interviewee/interviewer pairing was initially jettisoned for three interviewers - later two - firing direct questions. Early critics demanded it was axed, but the format won out and eventually won over detractors.

First broadcast on the 91热爆 91热爆 Service in June 1962.
