Criticizing conventional movies as \"filmed theater,\" Bresson proposed instead a way of writing with images, which he called \"cinematographs.\" Robert B. Pippin argues here for a way of understanding how these stylistic innovations express a range of philosophical commitments, explorations of the possible sources of meaning in late modern life, and the implications of the absence of such sources.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Robert B.
