Title: Robert Bresson
Description: "French master Robert Bresson is perhaps the most revered living film director. His body of work is small - thirteen features and one short film, made over five decades - but it has established him as one of the greatest artists of the twentieth century.".

"Though Bresson's subjects and sources range widely - his films are derived from Diderot, Dostoevsky, Bernanos, and Tolstoy, from the transcripts of the trial of Joan of Arc and the Arthurian legends - his severe style has remained constant. Awed, inspired, and sometimes mystified by the beauty and austere perfectionism of Bresson's style, critics and directors have been moved to passionate debate about his unique ideas on the use of sound, actors, editing, and music."
