use subtraction

Terrific masterpiece.
　　Use subtraction to express rich and excellent works.

　　What is presented under Brinell's partial photography method is not a simple symbol of the entire human being, but a reflection of the concept of human beings. As such, it appears as partial hands, swords, horses, and repeated scenes.
　　In fact, the film has no intention of reconstructing history or drawing on the "deep morals" of legends. Because even the Queen's love affair with Lancelot is just...

no sense

Indifferent to this film. I have been thinking about the relationship between the characters, and I can't tell who is who after putting on the armor. In an interview, the director said that "fluctuations of love" bring "rhythm" to the film. It reminds me of Arthur's kingdom and the round table being disintegrated because of the love of this man and woman... the cruelty of the battlefield at the beginning and end.
    The love of common people affects his life, and the love of princes and...

I really don't understand - need a certain literary literacy

I just finished watching "Death Rider Escape" and felt that I was a step closer to the master. This film made me dizzy again. After watching the behind-the-scenes tidbits, I realized that the reviewer pointed out that watching this film, the story of King Arthur's Knights of the Round Table looking for the Holy Grail It is necessary to have an understanding, because Bresson did not describe this incident in a positive way. It is estimated that audiences who do not have a deep understanding of...

DIRECTOR INTERVIEW // Bringing the past into the present

Pamphlet distributed at the film's release in 1974

Interviewer: What do you want to do with this subject?

Robert Bresson: To extract from our myth. There is also the following specific scenario: The knights return to Arthur's castle without finding the Holy Grail. The Holy Grail is the Absolute: God.

Interviewer: The Holy Grail, a Christian symbol...

Bresson: Yes, but the Holy Grail has long existed in the non-Christian legends of the...

Despair as French, Romance as French

This is an existential film.
   Almost all the actors who appear on the stage do not need to show their acting skills or even show any emotion. They are just the director's puppets.
  The battle between the knights became a bloody, comical, absurd show. I think, for the director, war is meaningless. Stories like "Knights of the Round Table", in the director's opinion, are just a beautiful fantasy of human beings. At least, this kind of thing won't last long.
  Is Cavalier...

How to fight against your own noble nature. What puzzles me is that maybe I didn't watch the film in the way the creator wanted, but instead the source of the pleasure of watching is the dramatic scenes complemented by parts and sounds. Therefore, it is even more puzzling that, for the sake of omission, only the lower body and certain parts are shot, should I be angry with these shots? The political expression in the visible part of this image is just too aggressive. Warrior Lansino, Assassin...

When all embellishments and renderings are discarded, the viewer will no longer be attracted by these appearances (a kind of obstacle that affects thinking and feeling) and can only focus on the essence. Suddenly I understood Bresson's anti-performance, and when the simple and even crude picture of a puppet show appeared before me, all the disturbances...

Based on Christian's "Lancelot, the Prisoner." Lancelot was told when he was looking for Guinevere, who was kidnapped by Mareagon, "if you want to see the queen, you must get in the prisoner of sinners". Bresson did not photograph him riding the prison cart and was ridiculed by the onlookers, but directly photographed him entering the iron prison in the tower to rescue the queen and bring it to King Arthur. Bresson, as always, did not want the audience to sympathize with the character because...
