Robert Bresson: Lo irrepetible en los modelos del cinematógrafo

Model. Their inner being. Unique, inimitable. —Robert Bresson In this piece, Bresson shifts the model's singularity to something even deeper than the body or the face: something that has a way of existing that cannot be copied. Bresson doesn't seek "interesting" personalities, but rather irreducible essences or spirits. Is he interested, then, in strength, character, charisma? What are the traits that most interest him, traits that are unique and inimitable? The answer to that question lies in five brief ideas that we will explore today. 00:00:00 Introduction to the Note 00:01:23 1. Every being possesses its own inner rhythm 00:04:11 2.
