Robert Bresson - A man escaped - 1956 [FRENCH. ENG subs]

imdb chosen review imdb 8/10 One of the Few Films Which I Can Confidently Call \"Perfect\", 30 August 2005 10/10 Author: xx from United States Pages and pages of film criticism could be, and most likely have been, written about this film, so I will just include my simple wholehearted recommendation, in the hopes that whoever is reading this will seek out \"A Man Escaped\" immediately. I can think of few films with a simpler premise and plot line than this - it really is only about an anonymous man in prison attempting to escape. That\'s it. Yet, director Robert Bresson, more than any other director I can think of (with the exception of Yasujiro Ozu), can imbue the drab everyday details of life with life-and-death importance. This director could make a movie about a guy tying his shoes into a riveting cinematic experience. His style of film-making is completely unobtrusive and restrained, because he has figured out a simple truth that about 95% of all film directors never realize: the less a director tries to \"push\" his ideas through a film, ironically, the greater the range of ideas he is able to elicit in his audience. You bring to this movie whatever life experience and ideas you carry with you; an older child as well as an aging philosophy professor can enjoy this film equally, and for very different reasons. In addition, I believe this is also the most realistic film that I have ever seen. It takes the skill of a master to make reality into great cinema, and this film is one of Bresson\'s greatest. It could even be his greatest, because though his other films \"Au Hasard Balthazar\" and \"Pickpocket\" are great masterpieces, they can never have the same kind of accessibility to virtually any living person in the world as this has.

The film IS perfect. Nobody will deny that. Though it's a film about the French Resistance in WWII, the depiction of Nazis is remarkably benign (Bresson gives some cold statistics about the prison during the titles, which he conveniently forgets). The result is a film that could happen to any political prisoner anywhere in the world.
The reputation of the film is well-deserved.
A must-see film.
The rip is excellent, thanks a lot to *Sealand Pres. the 1st*.

This film is good but as Bresson saw himself in the premiere of his film, the sound should have been lounder from times, Ill relook the film. Bresson complete masterpiece : L

Hey everyone, I would be really grateful for some seeds on this as soon as possible, I have to write an essay on it for a college film class by tuesday and that's not enough time to order the DVD!
In return, I have a lot of really good old French films I could upload, from Godard, Truffaut, Chabrol, Renoir etc. in particular a favourite of mine, Truffaut's shamefully underrated 'argent de poche' if anyone's interested.
In fact, as a thank you, name any film available on dvd and I will personally go buy the dvd and upload it here, I'm really desperate to have this. Please help! Thanks for uploading it in the first place, you have great taste! love to all x

Share you bastards! There are 4 of you pricks with 100% downloaded and you all have the seed throttled to nothing. If you aren't going to seed fucking delete the torrent so others can know that selfish motherfuckers took but aren't giving back and they can look elsewhere.
