Acknowledgments
Many thanks to Jean-Pierre Jeunet at Tapioca Films for his time and good humour, and the staff at the British Film Institute and the Bibliothèque Nationale for their patience. Thank you to colleagues and friends at the universities of Liverpool, Nottingham, and Sheffield, particularly to Dr Saul Israel-Andrews for his insights. I am hugely grateful to Neil and Sakina Burgess for their attention to the manuscript, as well as Owen Rowlands, my artist and designer. Thank you also to Cambria Press, especially Dr Paul Richardson, Toni Tan, and Nicole Pfeifer.
