THE POETRY OF PRECISION: A ROBERT BRESSON RETROSPECTIVE

LE DIABLE PROBABLEMENT
Presented in collaboration with Cultural Services of the French Embassy, the Institut français, and the French Film and TV Office of the French Consulate in Los Angeles.
LE DIABLE PROBABLEMENT
1977, Olive Films/Film Desk, 95 min, France, Dir: Robert Bresson

The most controversial film of Bresson’s career, LE DIABLE PROBABLEMENT was off-limits to viewers under the age of 18 in France as an incitement to suicide. A film that caused Rainer Werner Fassbinder to threaten to walk off the Berlin Film Festival jury if his support for it was not made public, it traces the last six months in the life of a young Parisian in search of his own demise, who rejects the conventional solutions offered by politics and religion, saying “My sickness is that I see clearly.” In French with English subtitles.
