The French film director Robert Bresson was one of the great artists of the twentieth century and among the most radical, original, and radiant stylists of any time.
From the beginning to the end of his career, Bresson ded.
He worked with nonprofessional actors--models, as he called them--and deployed a starkly limited but hypnotic array of sounds and images to produce such classic works as A Man Escaped , Pickpocket , Diary of a Country Priest , and Lancelot of the Lake .
