Transcendental Style in Film: Ozu, Bresson, Dreyer

In Paul Schrader's book, Transcendental Style in Film: Ozu, Bresson, Dreyer, he discusses the different styles of these film directors. One style that I found interesting was the topic of camerawork. Schrader goes on to argue that "Any possible shot...conveys a certain attitude towards a character." The article goes on to add about the way that each director edits their films. For example, Schrader claims that "Like Ozu, Bresson prefers the regular, unostentatious cut." This article explains how different directors have different techniques of portraying a film. Also, it is a good refence for examples of formilism.
