L'Herbier, M. (English spelling) LHerbierM

...The filmmakers who René Jeanne called the "French School" and Georges Sadoul called the "French Impressionists" created an era. Gance, who used innovative flashbacks to bring the images to life in "The White Rose of the Railroad" (1923), and "Napoleon" (1927), which played a "symphony" of images using a "triple écran" (three-sided screen), and Marcel L'Herbier, who attempted to create fresh images with stylized equipment, new lighting, the use of distorting lenses, and extreme soft focus in "El Dorado" (1921) and "Pascal the Vivian" (1925), were among his works. Representative examples of this include L'Herbier (1890-1979), Jean Epstein's Dripping Blood (1924) and The Descendants of the House of Usher (1928), in which he attempted to express poetry through slow-motion and double-exposure images, and Jacques Feydelle's The Spider Woman (1921), which left a vivid impression with its fantastical ``photogenie of the desert sands,'' and Thérèse Raquin (1928), which succeeded in ``delicate psychological portrayal.'' It was during this period that avant-garde film "waved the flag of non-commercialism and began to take on an agitator-like role" (Maurice Bessy) (see [Film] under "Avant-garde"). It was also during this period that film theory calling for "pure cinema" developed, but according to Sadoul's History of Cinema, it was during the 1920s that French film itself "had no international influence whatsoever" and fell into "a terrible corporate decadence."
