Lots of chapters on the French auteurs are in my book _Creative
Encounters with French Films_ (Edwin Mellen Press, 1993 - by Emily
Zants); indeed, all the directors are treated separately as auteurs -- 23
of them, as I recall.  And there is a summary (4+ pages) in the
introduction of the "Politique des auteurs" and lots of references to
other sources.  Enjoy! Emily
