FRI SEPT 9, 2022 1:00 PM LANCELOT DU LAC $8.00 (member) ; $13.00 (general admission) Los Feliz 3 | Robert Bresson: An American Cinematheque Retrospective Tickets are no longer on sale for this event.
ABOUT THE FILM: Bresson’s dream project, a film he wanted to make for more than 20 years, LANCELOT DU LAC marked a new distillation in the master’s vision and style. The director predictably ignores the pageantry, magic and romance of the quest for the Holy Grail, concentrating instead on the demise of the chivalric codes and on the canonic knights’ spiritual anguish as they return “without the Grail, which is to say the absolute, God” (Bresson).
