Jean Grémillon

Jean Grémillon (1901–1959, France) was a French film director, editor, and composer. Active primarily in the 1930s and 1940s, he is known for his poetic realist films such as *Remorques* (1941) and *Lumière d’été* (1943), which blended lyrical visuals with social themes. Grémillon’s work influenced post-war French cinema, though his career was interrupted by World War II and health issues.
