Tarkovsky and Bresson in Cannes (1983)
If you read about Tarkovsky's films you may have run across a description of the 1983 Cannes Film Festival in which his film "Nostalghia" did not get the Golden Palm as he had hoped. His rather short acceptance speech was mentioned at the time. Here you can see the interesting and very un-Oscar-like appearance on stage of Robert Bresson, Andrei Tarkovsky, and Orson Welles.
This clip is from the Dutch 1984 documentary "De weg naar Bresson" by Leo de Boer and Jurriën Rood. It's not available on video, hence the lame quality, but if and when it's available, grab it. It's actually about Robert Bresson - another giant of cinema. UPDATE: the film is out in Spain (Spanish subtitles only), see e.g. http://tinyurl.com/ytps8t or http://tinyurl.com/yrzu2a
Length: 141
Rating: 4.80 (60 ratings)
