	Robert Bresson
		A young, weary priest (Claude Laydu) arrives at the rectory of his new parish in Ambricourt on the French countryside, and catches the averted, suspecting gaze of the Count (Jean Riveyre) and his mistress.
		One day, when the troubled and manipulative Chantal tests the priest's compassion by threatening to commit suicide, he is drawn into ministering the Countess (Marie-Monique Arkell), a resigned and tormented woman who continues to grieve for the loss of her young son, and succeeds in helping her find inner peace.
		Metaphorically, the physical malady of the priest is a manifestation of his spiritual health and eroding idealism, as his affliction evolves from a passing discomfort that is ameliorated by abstinence and self-denial, to a degenerative illness that slowly consumes him.

	French Culture \| Cinema \| Robert Bresson: Diary of a Country Priest - contest (Criterion DVD 2004) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
		Robert Bresson's profoundly moving DIARY OF A COUNTRY PRIEST represents a radical departure from the staid movie adaptations of novels that had preceded it.
		Rather than translate author George Bernanos's story of a small-town priest's struggle with doubt -- and the petty provocations of the townspeople -- in the usual fashion, Bresson chooses instead to place an emphasis on the character¹s inner life, his thoughts, and simple joys.
		With his fourth film, Robert Bresson began to implement his stylistic philosophy as a filmmaker, stripping away all inessential elements from his compositions, the dialogue and the music, exacting a purity of image and sound.

	Amazon.ca: Blue Pyramids: Books: Robert Priest (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
		Because a fair estimation of Priest’s oeuvre-at least as represented by the material in this collection-obliges that a distinction be drawn at the outset between poems calculated to live on the page and poems measured to engage a room of reasonably-attentive, gamesome strangers.
		Blue Pyramids may be a testament to the scope and scale of Priest’s output over the past thirty years (he’s the author of fourteen books and numerous recordings), but he’s not well-served by this putative ‘selection’, principally because it isn’t selective enough.
		The result of this book’s lack of editorial discrimination is that Priest comes off, in toto, as consistently clever but only occasionally compelling, a poet whose weakness for the wisecrack blunts the force of the comic vision subtending the best of these poems.

	Review (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
		Robert Priest is reportedly funny (“hilarious” say Susan Musgrave and Mike Bullard).
		Priest also displays a highly physical randiness in addresses to lovers (“a night stretched for sex / taut against the meeting of our mouths / thigh to thigh / dawn to dawn”) and odes to the clitoris, sperm, the penis and – orifice of preference here – “the bum”:
		Priest can be funny (in fact, his comic verse signifies his best potential), but the problem is that he keeps too tight a leash on his whimsy.

	Resurrection in the Cartoon (Preview) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
		Resurrection in the Cartoon is Robert Priest's first full collection of new poems in seven years.
		Relentless in its assessment of contemporary culture, the mordant irony, brutal honesty, and remarkable sensitivity of Priest's surreal prose poems, lush lyrics, confessions, psalms, slams, songs, sayings, and parables creates a poetic crucible in which the Canadian "melting-pot'' is purified of its hypocrisies and reclaimed, ultimately, in the joy of language.
		As a songwriter he has worked with the likes of Alannis Morisette, Alannah Myles, and Tom Cochrane, and his own new album, Tongue'n Groove, will be released in the summer of 1997 by EMI as the debut title for their Artisan label.

	The Straight Dope: Assuming the missionary position . . . again.
		However, Robert J. Priest (yes, the coincidence is amusing) in his article "Missionary Positions: Christian, Modernist, Post-Modernist" (Current Anthropology, February 2001) carefully picks this story apart.
		Priest conjectures that Kinsey conflated these disparate elements to come up with the missionary position tale, apparently never bothering to compare his faulty recollection against Malinowski's words.
		Priest, a divinity school professor, believes that from there missionary position gradually took hold as a way of marginalizing the Christian take on things, but he suggests that Kinsey, whatever his motives, made an honest mistake.

	CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Ven. Robert Drury
		On 17 September, 1590, he was sent to the new College at Valladolid; here he finished his studies, was ordained priest and returned to England in 1593.
		An invitation from the Government to these priests to acknowledge their allegiance and duty to the queen (dated 5 November, 1602) led to the famous loyal address of 31 January, 1603, drawn up by Dr. William Bishop, and signed by thirteen of the leading priests, including the two martyrs, Drury and Cadwallader.
		The results of the address were disappointing; Elizabeth died within three months of its signature, and James I soon proved that he would not be satisfied with any purely civil allegiance.

		Like a series of post-modern woodcuts, the fluid lines of Priest's (The Town That Got Out of Town) sleek airbrushed enamel-on-clayboard illustrations unfold in a sequence of color-saturated vignettes that give form and substance to this diverting tale of a retired buccaneer.
		In measured and stately tones befitting the dignity (albeit somewhat tarnished) of this pair, this quirky tale celebrates friendship, character, and, well, maturity, while extolling the glories of Central Park and enhancing the literary mystique of New York City.
		Priest sets the stage like a journalist, observing both the battle and the (typically New York) behavior of bystanders to the fray: People hid under tables and wondered if someone was making a movie.
