A fine art film directed by Alain Resnais, the story seems to be about extramarital affairs, but the theme points to a labyrinth of life, a labyrinth of feelings, and a labyrinth of life. Its most admired is the spiral narrative structure.

In addition to the many superb camera performances, I was also impressed by the gambling game - very simple layout, whoever takes the cards or matches at the end loses, why does the tall, thin man who seems to be the woman's husband always win? puzzle. The mix of past and present, the emotional confusion of fidelity to a husband and a distraction to a seducer. puzzle. Baroque architecture and sculpture as well as music, puppet-like expressions of people around, mysteries.

In such a movie, the plot is no longer important, the important thing is to experience the emotions and thinking of the director with heart.

    Alain Resnais representative work, Venice Golden Lion Award. ①I am spinning in the corridors of the gorgeous and blurred baroque hotel; ②The savage and dazzling editing, the flashbacks that are both real and illusory, the erratic time and space, the stream of consciousness; The mirror is very poetic, and the crowds that freeze from time to time are like silent and cold sculptures, allowing free thoughts to stop and stop; (9.5/10)

Last Year at Marienbad quotes

  • [X wanders through the hotel's corridors cataloging items he sees]

    X: Empty salons. Corridors. Salons. Doors. Doors. Salons. Empty chairs, deep armchairs, thick carpets. Heavy hangings. Stairs, steps. Steps, one after the other. Glass objects, objects still intact, empty glasses. A glass that falls, three, two, one, zero. Glass partition, letters.

  • X: I must have you alive. Alive, as you have already been every evening, for weeks, for months.

    A: I have never stayed so long anywhere.

    X: Yes, I know. I don't care. For days and days. Why don't you still want to remember anything?

    A: You're raving! I'm tired, leave me alone!
