Internationally, however, two films in 1986 overshadow all his other achievements.Jean de Florette and its sequelManon des Sources were huge hits.[3] In 1991, his filmUranus was entered into the41st Berlin International Film Festival.[4] Six years later, his filmLucie Aubrac was entered into the47th Berlin International Film Festival.[5]

In 2003, he was elected President of theCinémathèque Française where he obtained enough state subsidies to cover the costs of its resurgence at its new site in the rue de Bercy.[6]
