L’argent Blu-ray The Criterion Collection 886 1983 / Color / 1:85 anamorphic 16:9 / 85 min. An extreme artist makes a fascinatingly unyielding show: as with the classic paintings that Bresson admires, appreciation requires special knowledge. Welcome to the final film of the aesthetically precise, rigorously austere Robert Bresson, an adaptation of a fateful tale by Leo Tolstoy visualized in Bresson’s frequently maddening personal style. Other former Oscar nominees and winners showing films at Tiff include Gibney with “ Citizen K,” his portrait of Russian oligarch-turned-Putin-critic Mikhail Khodorkovsky Kopple, with “Desert One,” about an Iranian hostage rescue mission and Stevens, co-director with Malcolm Venville of “ And We Go Green,” a Leonardo DiCaprio-produced film about the Formula. The documentary section will open with “ The Cave” from Feras Fayyad, director of the Oscar-nominated “ Last Men in Aleppo.” The film is set in an underground hospital led by a female doctor in Syria.
