Film: Pickpocket

I'm probably the only person in the world who watched this film twice yesterday (for teaching purposes). It's brilliant. And I've been thinking about it a lot because I wrote up a quiz on it and am thinking through the answers and the various valid ways of interpreting the film. 

As for a personal influence, it's sort of like Marie Kondo, it inspires me toward more minimalism but such a tendency does not come natural to me. 

I actually think The Rock (90s film) and Pickpocket are a fantastic movie pair - Michael Bay is a total maximalist and Bresson a minimalist and to be honest, I really like both.
