Bresson's use of voiceovers is very poetic, which is quite a contrast to his nuanced and alienated relationship settings. And, keeping a diary to guide the narrative paragraphs is very...

The images here are more like the flesh formed by the spread of words and emotions, like the sacrament discussed by the male protagonist and the children. Bresson's difficulty is...
