Review of Au Hasard Balthazar (1966) by Knox M — 31 Dec 2017
This movie left me in the emotional knockout.While watching the film I experienced an inexpressible flood of thoughts and a stream of memories was triggered, that were rooted deep in my childhood. The film is vastly complex and at the same time pretty plain, a cinematic wonder.
I thought about all the martyrs humanity has seen, like Christ, Joan of Arc. This film is a monument to all of them in the face of Balthazar. One of the most humanistic films I've ever encountered.
