L'invite du dimanche - A selection of excerpts from the French television program L'invite du dimanche (The Sunday Invitation), containing interviews with Jean-Pierre Melville, actors Paul Crauchet, Jean-Pierre Cassel, and Simone Signoret, writer Joseph Kessel, and Andre Dewavrin (a.k.a Colonel Passy). Originally aired in 1969.

"L'Invité Du Dimanche" (The Sunday Invitation) was an innovative program because it rehabilitated the live broadcast which had fallen into disuse since the advent of recorded programmes. A live which is not only a means of transmission, but also pretended, which does not show the event, but provoke it..., with all the risks that this implies, and the happy surprises - also called the "miracle" - which may result from this. The show was broadcast continuously on Sunday afternoons, allowing a meeting around a character. The Guest, for four hours, confronted his ideas, discovered a crush, a casual discussion.
