The Marc Allégret Papers document Allégret 's career as a filmmaker and his association with author André Gide. Allegrét's working files include screenplays, shooting scripts, correspondence, background and research materials, production notes and documents, cut film, photographs, and printed ephemera. There are screenplays or shooting scripts for over a dozen feature-length films and larger, mixed files for the documentaries Voyage au Congo (1927), Occultisme et magie (1951), and Avec André Gide (1952). The files for Voyage au Congo also document Allegrét's travels with Gide through French equatorial Africa in the mid 1920s. Works by Others include writings by Gide and screenplays and shooting scripts by Allégret's collaborators. Works by Gide include corrected drafts and proofs for several titles dating from the 1920s, such as Corydon (1924) and Retour du Tchad (1927). Correspondence consists of letters to Allégret from Françoise Giroud, Roger Martin du Gard, and Roger Vadim, and third party correspondence between André Gide, Madeleine Louise Mathilde Gide, Elie Allégret, Roger Martin du Gard, producer Pierre Braunberger, and others.
