The Silence of the Sea

The Silence of the Sea

Paper instructions:

Discuss Melville’s film Army of Shadows and Vercors’ story The Silence of the Sea and show how they relate to the history of the French resistance during the German occupation of France, 1940-44. What do sound and image add to literary description? How do point of view and identification work in film/literature? You should make specific references to Ousby’s account of the French resistance and the historical introduction to the Vercors story, and the way that the film and the story might contribute to France’s continuing project of coming to terms with the trauma of the German occupation. Take ONE SCENE from the film and discuss it in depth: cinematography, editing, sound.
