"Tout mon effort a été de rechercher dans l'action du scénario d'Antonin Artaud les points harmoniques, et de les relier entre eux par des rythmes étudiés et composés." - Germaine Dulac (Festival International du Film de La Rochelle)
Critiques (1)
This 30-minute excursion into the twisted soul and thoughts of a lecherous priest who lusts after a general's wife is a very graphic example of a film from the French film impressionism era. The abundance of visual effects and the emphasis on capturing the moment in the form of impressions make The Seashell and the Clergyman an exemplary work of its time that deserves attention, even if it didn't capture my full interest as a viewer. In short, a film that is historically and artistically worthy while being bound to a fairly limited audience.
