As the title implies Robert Bresson (Revised) updates and amends the original volume. Greatly expanded and richly illustrated, this examination of Bresson's vision and style brings together over two dozen important articles by leading critics and scholars. Published by TIFF and distributed by WLU Press, the book's release coincides with a major retrospective of Robert Bresson opening at the TIFF Lightbox this week and eventually touring 14 North American cities.
