This is cinema. Still holds today. The longevity. If the new generation finds it today they will love it so much. My first film from Robert Bresson and it didnot dissapoint. Isee it as the metaphor to the societal fallout even though we seem to be going on and about just fine, but our society is woven on so small threads that it doesnot take a person to collapse. And collapse of one person is collapse of society. We find lot of temporary solutions and trying to find the thing we want, but when the disgust leaves, the fall is imminent. Loved the film. Perhaps the darker ending makes it better. He finally gets liberated at the end. That is something many people will not consider. While each and every character is still chained to the politics, religion and everything in between. Loved it. Only recommend this to my film mutuals.
