An influential novelist, Duras has had several of her works brought to the screen, notably "This Angry Age" (1957), directed by Rene Clement, "10:30 P.M. Summer" (1966), directed by Jules Dassin, "The Sailor from Gibraltar" (1967), directed by Tony Richardson and "The Lover" (1992), directed by Jean-Jacques Annaud. She contributed the haunting script for Alain Renais' "Hiroshima, Mon Amour" (1959) and began her own career as a film writer-director in the mid-1960s.

Her last film, "Les enfants" (1984) was co-directed with her son, Jean Mascolo, and Jean-Marc Turin.
