A large number of inner monologues give tension to the story, seemingly calm, but in fact,
the tension of the movie is turbulent in its camera position. It seems normal, but it is not.
So romantic. . .

Bresson is so precise and cool, and the sound is so detailed, so amazing. When the rhythm of the movie is so good, he still doesn't allow the audience to get too excited. Every time I sit in a different position, I think, the excitement is coming! Pressed back by him again?… Also: Kenneth Lonergan (and many others) must learn from Bresson how to use classical music for soundtracks

All prison break movies are weak in front of this. . The whole film is very gentle, but it is very tight and tense, and it is almost always watched with breathlessness. . All in one go. And there is no cumbersomeness at all. The director really showed it without embellishment like the sentence at the beginning.
Le lieutenant Fontaine: Do you believe in luck?
François Jost: I used to. It didn't work out.
Le lieutenant Fontaine: Maybe you're the one who blew it.
Le lieutenant Fontaine: [Narrating, after giving his word to the prison warden that he would not try to escape again] Who were we kidding? He certainly did not believe me. As for myself, I was determined to escape at the first opportunity.
