Bresson is a very bad director? Is that why every camera movement creates an artificial atmosphere, or why his characters look to the ground before they speak to show acceptance of their place in the universe? I must say, this is quite perplexing.. Ashes and Diamonds is.. Boring!?!? Akerman created a fortress of solitude in her film! At least you have seen these films, I suppose..
Kurosawa – Kiarostami is an overrated hack
Pasolini – Bresson is a very bad director
Tarkovsky – see above
Bergman – Ashes and Diamonds is boring
Akerman – Magic Spells? get a grip
Bunuel – He is the master
