I have seen it twice. The second time I fell asleep and was woken up by the cleaner in the cinema - Le Renoir near the British Library - who said `Didn't do much for you then, sir?' nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
Although Robert Bresson is widely regarded by movie critics and students of the cinema as one of the greatest directors of the twentieth century, his films are largely unknown and are rarely shown in the English-speaking world. Nonetheless, Susan Sontag has called Bresson the master of the reflective mode in film. This book introduces Bresson's movies to a broader audience, assesses thirteen of his most significant films in the context of detailed plot summaries, vivid descriptions of characters and settings, and perceptive, jargon-free insights into the director's execution, intention, and technique. Among the films, made between 1943 and 1983, are Diary of a Country Priest, A Man Escaped, Pickpocket, The Trial of Joan of Arc, Au Hasard Balthasar, Mouchette, A Gentle Woman, Lancelot of the Lake, and L'Argent. Each of these films in its own way illustrates what Joseph Cunneen calls Bresson's spiritual style. Though not necessarily focused on the explicitly religious, they illustrate two complementary principles- on the negative side, the rejection of what the director called photographed theatre with its artificiality and dependence on celebrity performers. On the more positive side, as Bresson himself expressed it, the conviction that, The supernatural is only the real rendered more precise; real things seen close up.
