AKA - Quatre Nuits d’un Rêveur
Marthe, poised on the middle of the bridge, is stopped from leaping by Jacques.
That’s night one. Over the ensuing three nights, they share each other’s stories.
Jacques comes across as stalker lite, but he is a painter so one may forgive him and assume he is studying faces.
Marthe suffers “relationship” problems. The sort where you consider suicide.
Their meetings occur at night, and director Bresson has a wonderful eye for rain blurred streets.
Not much goes on, actually, but this is an atmospheric film for night owls.
