Georges Franju later would be known for his poetic, atmospheric features of the fifties and sixties (La Tête contre les murs, Eyes Without a Face, Judex), and Henri Langlois, of course, as the celebrated Director of the Cinémathèque Française over some 40 years. But Franju was also a film archivist-among other things he co-founded the Cinémathèque Française-and Langlois, it would appear, a would-be film director, for the two friends directed Le Métro together in 1934.
