Review of Au Hasard Balthazar (1966) by Colton D — 18 Jan 2010
Like de sicas "the bicylce thieves", bressons character study is more about the human condition than about the plot itself. too much polish would have distracted us from the simplicity of the story, but realism provides it with a profound texture that I fear most common movie fans would miss entirely.
who knew that a 90 minute movie about a donkey would have so much to say about humans?
