How should we understand film authorship in an era when the idea of
the solitary and sovereign auteur has come under attack, with
critics proclaiming the death of the author and the end of cinema?
The Bressonians provides an answer in the form of a strikingly
original study of Bresson and his influence on the work of
filmmakers Jean Eustache and Maurice Pialat. Extending the
discourse of authorship beyond the idea of a singular visionary, it
explores how the imperatives of excellence function within cinema's
pluralistic community. Bresson's example offered both an artistic
legacy and a creative burden within which filmmakers reckoned in
different, often arduous, and altogether compelling ways.
