Director: Robert Bresson; Romantic Comedy / Drama, No Rating, France; French,1971 ,87 min.


One of the least known Bresson films a French romantic comedy-drama film written and directed by Bresson. A loose adaptation of Fyodor Dostoyevsky’s short story “White Nights,” the film tells the story of a down-on-his-luck artist who attempts to prevent a heartbroken woman from committing suicide by spending four consecutive evenings with her on the streets of Paris.


Despite (or perhaps because of) its unusually light tone for a late-style Bresson film, it has been described as one of Bresson’s most underrated films.
