Une femme douce / A Gentle Woman (1969)
Dir. Robert Bresson | 88 mins | Colour | French (subtitled) | 15

A young woman kills herself, leaving no explanation to her grief-stricken pawnbroker husband. We learn in flashback about how they met, married, and how she failed to adapt her lifestyle to his. Disgusted with his attempts to dominate her, she considered murdering him, but found herself unable to do it...

Robert Bresson's first colour film has rarely been seen in the UK since 1969. Now it has been restored and re-released, a potent critique of the male gaze, now more relevant than ever.
