In the late 1950s, the new wave of French film emerged in the world film industry, which was driven by a group of young filmmakers and brought about the trend of film reform. In this period, there are two styles of New Wave directors, one is the author's film, which was also been called film manual school, the other is the writer's film - left bank school. This paper focuses on the analysis of the author's films. They denounce “quality tradition” and belittle it as “father's films”, subverting the traditional film creation methods and theoretical principles, and changing the routine shooting and production methods. With the changes of ideology and philosophy at that time, they realized the expansion and innovation of the film language and performance space.
