Renée Lichtig
Kurgucu · 86 yaşında vefat etti · Shanghai, China
Renée Lichtig is one of the major figures of film editing and restoration in France. Born in Shanghai to a Russian mother, she spent her childhood in China before moving to France in the 1930s. The tragic death of her father, an electrical engineer, in a nitrate‑film fire deeply shaped her relationship to cinema and fueled her later commitment to film preservation. She began as an intern at the Épinay studios and then became a film editor.
