314 - Pickpocket (1959)
b'
You know those drab, mid-century French films where pale, thin guys in suits stare at each other with blank, unreadable expressions on there faces while a voiceover drones on describing this inaction with a slight undercurrent of pseudo-nihilism? \\xa0But, like, it\\u2019s somehow super thrilling AND deeply beautiful? \\xa0Robert Bresson brings his stripped-down style to this meditative procedural about a despondent, but highly-skilled criminal that set the standard for angsty crime films.
If you\\u2019d like to watch ahead for next week\\u2019s film, we will be discussing and reviewing Juraj Herz\\u2019s The Cremator (1969).
