lose my life

It is said to be the inspiration for Twelve Monkeys, but the style is completely different. It was the first time I saw this kind of static-screen movie, except for the blink of an eye for nearly half an hour. It may be that the intermittent incoherence is more like a memory, or looking back and smiling, or looking at it, the loose hair in the wind and the fingers brushing the ends of the hair are beautiful but not real. Maybe it's a miss, maybe it's an empty dream, and it can't always be embraced. I like this kind of careful loss, and I like the sadness of fate that can't be escaped. It turned out that when I was young, I was in a trance for that person. When I got older, I didn't dare to forget it. I traveled through time to meet, just to witness and be witnessed at the end of the story, the end of my life.

La Jetée quotes

  • Narrator: It was the starting point for a whole series of tests, in which he would meet her at different times. Sometimes he finds her in front of their markings. She welcomes him in a simple way. She calls him her Ghost.

  • Narrator: [referring to The Woman's face] That face he had seen was to be the only peacetime image to survive the war. Had he really seen it? Or had he invented that tender moment to prop up the madness to come?
