The 10 Best Films of Robert Bresson
"Widely lauded by contemporary critics and filmmakers alike, including Jean-Luc Godard, Andrei Tarkvosky, Ingmar Bergman, and Jacques Rivette, and influencing the following generation of filmmakers in Paul Schrader, Michael Haneke, Jean-Pierre and Luc Dardenne, among countless others, his ascetic style, for its opposition to all the standard conventions of cinema, was never directly transmitted, (save for the almost parodic imitation of Haneke's The Seventh Continent) and masterworks like A Man Escaped, Pickpocket, Au Hasard Balthazar, and L'argent remain expressions of a creative vision unique to the whole of film."
