 This
movie will break your heart.
The good folks at the New York State Writers
Institute are concluding their 2010 fall film
series with a key French film of the 1960s,
Au hasard, Balthazar, and are calling
it extraordinary. They are correct.
Robert Bressons 1967 drama follows the parallel
lives of a donkey, Balthazar, and his first
owner, a young girl named Marie (Anne Wiazernsky)pictured
together hereas they are separated, then suffer
and survive in a world they dont understand.
Bressons colleague Jean-Luc Godard called the
film the world in an hour and a half. It doesnt
spare the viewer from lifes cruelties, but
it leaves room for lifes moments of grace,
as well.
Au
hasard, Balthazar will be screened tomorrow
(Friday, Dec. 3) at 7:30 PM at Page Hall (University
at Albany, 135 Western Ave., Albany). Admission
is free. For more info, call 442-5620.
