You may have heard something about this new film. Oprah and Obama are fans, and the filmmakers have quite an impressive education. But you probably don’t know that director BENH ZEITLIN ’04 WILL BE COMING NEXT MONDAY, so don’t miss this chance to watch (or re-watch) his breakthrough hit before he comes to town.
1951. France. Dir. Robert Bresson. With Claude Leydu. 115 min.
Saturday, Nov. 10, 8 p.m. FREE.
A young priest undertakes a new career in a new town. Unfortunately, the citizens are corrupt and his health isn’t much better off. Robert Bresson, one of cinema’s finest auteurs, crafts this intense, tender film with unfailing precision. It’s a completely unique cinematic experience, delving into morality and spirituality with a brisk frankness.
