More than once, Orson Welles called Jean Renoir "the greatest of all directors." Renoir is less well known for his theoretical writings about his work. In this lecture Professor Singer explores Renoir's carefully formulated ideas about the meanings that underlie his varied techniques and about the nature of creativity in general. Film clips from Renoir's movies will contribute to this investigation.
