Challenging the prevailing notion among cinephiles that the auteur
is an isolated genius interested primarily in individualism, Colin
Burnett positions Robert Bresson as one whose life's work confronts
the cultural forces that helped shape it. Regarded as one of film
history's most elusive figures, Bresson (1901-1999) carried himself
as an auteur long before cultural magazines, like the famed Cahiers
du cinema, advanced the term to describe such directors as Jacques
Tati, Alfred Hitchcock, and Jean-Luc Godard. In this groundbreaking
study, Burnett combines biography with cultural history to uncover
the roots of the auteur in the alternative cultural marketplace of
midcentury France.
