      L' argent and Le diable probablement, two of my favorite films indeed!

      There is something extremely contemporary and avant-garde in L' argent which is often missing in other Bresson movies.

      While Tolstoy might not be to everyone's taste, the movie adaptations of his short works have all been great.

      No problems with Tolstoy, it's just that Bresson's models are so interlocked with Kleist's marionettes, it's all inevitably contemporary and AI-ish

      This is I think he inherited from Zola. When critics complained that Zola's characters are too mechanical, he replied because life is bigger than persons.

      This is what I call in a tongue-in-cheek manner, elite modernism. With Proust you get the moaning of characters, with Zola you get plot vs character storylines. It's the plot in Ben Singleton's sense that makes ultra-modern blurring of what is mundane and what is cosmic.

      Bazin was the guy to write about that in cinema (and his style was mundane and cosmic at the same time). Btw, I totally understand if he doesn't, but does Singleton still write (can imagine he implements theory with his strategy firm)?

      Ben is still writing, mostly shortly pieces.
