description: Robert Bresson makes some quite radical distinctions between what he terms "cinematography" and something quite "cinema"—which is for him nothing but an attempt to photograph theater and use it for the screen.Director of The Trial of Joan of Arc, Pickpocket, A Prisoner Escapes, Diary of a Country Priest, Money , and many other classic films, Robert Bresson is, quite simply, one of the most brilliant cinematographers in the history of film.
