English translation of this letter:
Madam or Miss, I can believe that you "admire enormously" the film Mouchette created by my husband Robert Bresson. But I do not think that you respect that film when you create a game ("quiz") inspired by it, asking questions with a lightness of tone totally unsuitable with the gravity of the subject matter -the suicide of a child- and you illustrate it with photographies that I personally took in the unique purpose to serve faithfully a particularly sensitive subject. Therefore, in response to your letter of 10 november, I feel obliged to refuse the authorisation that you are asking me. Best greetings, Mylène Bresson |
