Passionate Life of Clemenceau (1953)
The life and work of French statesman Georges Clemenceau is detailed in this 80-minute documentary.

Much emphasis is placed upon the subject's involvement with the League of Nations and the Treaty of Versailles. The narration by Yves Furet is counterpointed with excerpts from Clemenceau's most celebrated speeches. The patriotic fervor of La Vie Passionee de Clemenceau tended not to play too well in non-French markets.
