"I don't get it."

Film Watched all of Robert Bresson's final film L'Argent in film class tonight. This is when he finally stripped away almost everything you would expect to be important in a film -- acting, music and clear plotting. It's about a how a fake bank note leads a man into prison and finally to redemption through murder. Important moments are expressed impressionistically to the extent that the viewer frequently only works out what was going on some minutes down the line. To be honest, it was all a bit too blank for my taste -- I couldn't relate or become involved in any of the character's stories so that in the end there was a general sense of emptiness -- like I'd eaten a pizza which had been in the oven too long and the cheesy topping had gone hard.
