Bobby Bresson

This from what is easily the wisest and most u s e f u l book on cinema ever written, 'Notes on the Cinematographer', by Robert Bresson. His skill and rigour marginalised him to the extent that even in France - where they lauded him - no-one dared finance any of his films for the last 20 years of his life (barring the one you see him shooting here, 'L'Argent').

"Someone who can work with the minimum can work with the most.
One who works with the most cannot, inevitably, with the minimum."
Amen.
