The nytimes book review says "In England not long ago a survey of writers and critics revealed that the twentieth-century novelist they most admired--and who they thought would have the most enduring influence on the next century--was Marcel Proust." Maybe someone who has Harold Bloom's Genius can enlighten us to what it says. I feel that someone added the "French" qualifier and rather vague "of his time" on a whim. Thus, the lede statement is not matching the nytimes reference. --Bod (talk) 19:00, 1 October 2016 (UTC)
A film has been discovered of the marriage festivities of the daughter of Élisabeth, Countess Greffulhe, Élaine, in 1904 with a 3-second appearance of Proust. See:
"Around the thirty-five-second mark, as dozens of elegant socialites pass through the frame in a leisurely procession, a young Marcel races past them down the steps, garnering the disapproving gaze of one older woman. The film lasts little more than a minute, and Proust comes and goes in less than three seconds." (Gallo) -- Michael Bednarek (talk) 04:14, 19 February 2017 (UTC)

So that's it: https://indiereader.com/2013/11/the-great-search/ This guy, M. Proust and his works, were self-published. Therefore, the author does not qualify for a Wikipedia page according to Wikipedia:notoriety rules. The article should be removed.
A para on Proust's religion might be interesting - Hebraism or, as in the book, Catholic? FangoFuficius (talk) 10:27, 28 July 2022 (UTC)
