description Edgar Morin’s ideas on cinema, mainly from the 1950s, were long considered original. In order to pinpoint their specificity, this study goes back over Morin’s career, from his discovery of cinema between the wars and his activities in the Resistance to his meeting with Georges Friedmann and joining the research group he headed at the Institut de filmologie. This trajectory testifies to the existence of a French school of cinema as a social fact, which had been active since the 1920s and included Henri Wallon, Léon Moussinac and Georges Sadoul, among others. In putting Edgar Morin’s work into its intellectual and institutional context, the article situates its place in a history of French theories of cinema.
