Pickpocket

Christian Century,  Dec 13, 2005  

"With theft, I entered by the back door into the kingdom of morality," wrote legendary writer/director Robert Bresson (1901-1999) about this French classic (1959). Inspired by Dostoevsky's Crime and Punishment, it's about a silent young man who encounters sin, remorse, forgiveness and redemption while slipping his hand into overcoats and purses.

As with much of Bresson's work, the devil is in the details.
