Robert Bresson

“You can’t show everything. If you do, it’s no longer art. Art lies in suggestion. The great difficulty for filmmakers is precisely not to show things. Ideally, nothing should be shown, but that’s impossible.”

- Robert Bresson

With the new retrospective just ending at Film Forum last Thursday, there's been quite the incoming flow of new takes on Bresson over at MUBI (Robert Bresson: The Over-Plenty of Live). Hopefully when the retrospective is having its run at Belcourt I might be able to catch some screenings.
