What was the first avant-garde of French cinema?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Before the First World War, the French film industry had gained supremacy on the international market due to the dynamism of the firms created by Charles Pathé (1863-1957) and Léon Gaumont (1863-1946). After the war, while the United States in turn dominated the film market, French intellectuals were among the first to question the true nature, art or industry, of cinema. The initiator of this reflection was the writer Louis Delluc (1890-1924), who would become one of the founders of film clubs and the creator of the first film criticism section in a daily newspaper. In the films he directed (Woman from Nowhere, 1922; The Flood, 1923), he abandoned classical narration in favor of psychological truth. Among his disciples and constitute with him what we usually call the first French avant-garde. Abel Gance (1889-1981) remains a little on the fringes of this group; he applied the principles of the avant-garde to his feature films (La Roue, 1922; Napoléon, 1927), but he carried out his own stylistic research, which led him to grandiose visual symphonies.<end_of_turn><eos>
