André Delvaux

After having studied German philology, law, piano and composition Andre Delvaux filmed some TV documentaries. In 1965 he debuted in the movies with a film adapted from a novel of Johan Daisne. His films always played in a set between reality and fantasy. Writing his own scripts he filmed e.g. Een vrouw tussen hond en wolf (1979) and Benvenuta (1983) but he had had then problems in financing his projects. Nevertheless he went on with e.g. L'oeuvre au noir (1988) but the interest of the masses was only small.
