Last Year in Marienbad: ("L'annee Derniere a Marienbad"), Paperback / softback Book

Last Year in Marienbad: ("L'annee Derniere a Marienbad") Paperback / softback

Part of the BFI Film Classics series

Paperback / softback

Description

A quintessential work of 1960s European art cinema, "L'Annee derniere a Marienbad "("Last Year in Marienbad, "1961) was a collaboration between director Alain Resnais and 'New Novel" enfant terrible Alain Robbe-Grillet.

Three people, known only by their initials, move through the sprawling luxury of a mysterious hotel and its ornamental gardens.

Perhaps M is A's husband and X her lover. Perhaps '"last year," A promised X she would leave with him. Or is there something more terrible in the past? An abstract thriller, a love story, a philosophical puzzle, the film's deviations are, for Jean-Louis Leutrat, as complex as those of the human heart.
