Science like fine
accurate literature on
the will of the fate of

a nearly 1 hour Highlights included with this disc, a Dutch student interviews Bresson film department at the Cannes Film Festival (because of "money" entry), very interesting, as much as The movie itself. In the same year, Tarkovsky won the award for "Nostalgia", so you can see the old tower in a straight suit and Bresson came to the stage to receive the award at the same time. Looking at the photos, I think the old tower has a square face, but when I look at the video, I think it’s not square. It is very handsome and very elegant. He also accepted an interview about Bresson. To say that Bresson can be concise and clear, many people can't do one of them. The interviewee also had Louis Mahler, who said he was called the most like Bresson. I can't tell at all. Another method used by an actress to introduce the director of Bresson is the method that Bresson repeatedly wrote in "Film Writing Notes". He does not regard the actor as an actor, but as a model who has completed the work. The dramatic performance of the stage in the movie. It is conceivable that the actors do not like or adapt.

I also found an American writer to explain Bresson from the perspective of religion. The man said that he was surprised, and finally someone connected the movie with religion. I don't like this guy at all. Although Bresson did reserve a place for God, his films are definitely not for religion or morality.

Bresson ignored the media. During the interviews with Cannes reporters, he didn't answer superficial questions, joking and ironically dealing with the past. Bresson was fully psychologically prepared for the incomprehension of 13 works in his life.

The students tried to follow up, and finally Bresson agreed to answer a question. The students asked Bresson’s later works tend to be more pessimistic, with melancholy and heavy tones, and more morality? Bresson didn't know if he was shaking his feet (83 years old) or shaking his feet. He asked him whether the tragedies in Greece are beautiful. He said that he values ​​lucidite more and is clear. There is beauty in art, and for him, clarity is beauty. Compared with clarity, isn't morality too time-honored? He is making movies in his own way, which is different from the methods of other directors. Everyone is using that method, it won't work forever. To write (this is Bresson's definition of film), you must find your own way.

In the end, the student asked a question more thick-skinned, asking what the master would like to say to the younger generations of the movie? Bresson, who is about to send off guests, is a last resort, quoting Stendhal's "Red and Black": Learn more about other arts and complete your own art.

    In the confined space, there are mostly close-up and close-up shots of the protagonist, as well as some subjective shots. In addition to the inner monologue, the audience's perspective is as limited as his, and the outside environment and potential dangers can only be guessed. Even the jailer only appears in the back. The use of sound is also a must, the sound of gunshots, footsteps, natural sounds of cars and wheels, all of which create a real tense atmosphere. Minimalism, the title is a spoiler, the film focuses on preparations, escape from prison and the psychology of the characters

    The first Robert Bresson work I saw was the simplest and purest escape story. In the first-person form, it was as simple as a running account, but without any delays.
