Better than Bresson, Piara's natural light is used very well, the picture is still white and blue as always, there is a lot of dialogue, and those torture-style confrontations are quite interesting. Satan appeared to speak in the face of an ordinary person, but there was no sense of disobedience. In Piara's calm form, he was a little crazy and tangled.

God or Satan? The believer's dilemma. It's not just the crime that lures, it's the idea that's more deeply. Piara is dull (composure) not very likable, as Depardieu puts it, he puts him in a position of being unlikable, but he is deeply loved. The films of the 1980s captured the spirit of the 1950s and 1960s.

Donissan: God is mocking me.

[first lines]
Donissan: With you, everything looks easy. Alone, I'm useless. I'm like the zero, only useful next to other numbers. Priests are so miserable. They waste their lives seeing God being ignored. People make jokes on us. We're like those walls where people write obscenities.
Menou-Segrais: You're tired.
Donissan: Tired? I'm not tired. Tired is a bad thought.
Menou-Segrais: Suspend your visits.
Donissan: Those visits do more harm than good. In the beginning, I didn't know evil. I learned it from the mouths of the sinners.
Menou-Segrais: No one knows better than a priest about the terrible monotony of sin.
Donissan: I can't speak to them. I can't only make absolutions and feel sorry.
Menou-Segrais: If one absolution in thirty was worthy, the world would be brief.
