The stark, simple cinematic footprint of Robert Bresson was never more in evidence than in his classic A Man Escaped. With minimal dialogue and most of the movie narrated in voiceover, the riveting tale of an escape from a cobbled-together Nazi prison continues to mesmerize all these years later. Offering a master class in using close-ups to tell a story, Robert Bresson put a personal stamp on this material that truly makes it one of a kind.
