La vie de l'âne Balthazar, plongé au milieu des drames humains et qui en meurt. "Je voulais que l'âne traverse un certain nombre de groupes humains qui représentent les vices de l'humanité. Il fallait aussi, étant donné que la vie d'un âne est très égale, très sereine, trouver un mouvement, une montée dramatique. C'est à ce moment que j'ai pensé à une fille, à la fille qui se perd."

The symbolism of human sins is both the strongest and weakest point of the fable about the donkey. It unpredictably tightens the loop around the titular animal hero and his mournfully sad owner and friend, but at the same time submits so unquestioningly to the desired images that it only roughly outlines the characters' motivations and often goes beyond believability. Moreover, this is not the first time that the main character of Bresson's story is either sad or suffering in most scenes, and although I am a proponent of the idea that the same theme can be processed many times and yet differently each time, in the case of this tormenting subject, I see it exactly the opposite. Paradoxically, the most powerful impressions are left by the insidious Gérard. His performer François Lafarge is undeniably hypnotic and it is a pity that he did not come closer to his first role in his career.

Yes, for film students, this is definitely a bit of a treat. I'm almost certain that in about twenty, well, perhaps more like thirty years, I'll appreciate and recognize the depth of this film, but for now, it's just a good and tolerable film from an era and region that doesn't mean much to me. I don't see the brilliance of Bergman in it, so I was rather bored and didn't marvel at it.
