It's interesting how different Netflix is than imdb.com. If you look at imdb.com most of the ratings talk about how this movie is a masterpiece. If you look at Netflix half of the reviews discuss how they didn't like the abuse of the donkey and the girl. Somehow this abuse is supposed to be talking about spirituality. I'm more with the negative half of Netflix. The torment that the girl's childhood donkey and her receive is unsettling. I was annoyed with the girl's character. There was a guy in the movie who treated her right but she had to go for the bad boy. Of course, this is the story of millions of girls. It probably got The Criterion Collection because it was made by Robert Bresson who did make excellent movies like
Pickpocket. I thought the actress though in the movie was interesting Anne Wiazemsky. She was Jean Luc-Godard's wife for a time.
