In the preface of the script, the screenwriter said that
there are two kinds of people who watch this film.

One is that they want to see something
and find the film obscure and the

other is that they don’t hold any expectations
and just follow the director’s lens. Watching
is also a special kind of viewing experience.

I belong to the second kind.

In fact, it’s like the heroine.
Either you believe that she didn’t meet this man last year
or believe that what the man said is true
and decide to go with him.

I just believe it.

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!
