Boulogne-billancourt: The Studio Era

Since 1922, Boulogne-Billancourt cinema studios have welcomed the greatest actors, directors and technicians of French cinema and have given birth to many masterpieces. Gabin, Belmondo, Delon, Signoret, De Funes directed by Marcel Carne, Jacques Becker or Gerard Oury but also Pierre Richard, Patrice Leconte or Daniele Thompson all shot in the two greats studios which were the emblems of French cinema. But from the 90s, television supplanted cinema and studios suffered a deep crisis.
