In the mid-50s classic American cinema went into crisis, while in France appeared the Nouvelle Vague film movement led by young directors and former critics of Cahiers du Cinéma. Names like Godard and François Truffaut promoted the so-called “policy of authors”, who advocated the inclusion of film director in the pantheon of individual-artists, like painters and writers. This paper addresses the veiled discourse defense of this policy through the films of the Nouvelle Vague, which articulated the presence of its director as an artist behind the work. This speech was defended by the gaze turned to the camera, a gaze which questions and challenges the viewer. Our goal is to investigate the discursive practices that showed this trend in French cinema of the time to reassert itself as art and as a product of the individualism of someone who could be called, as it occurred in the other arts, the “author”.
