Last Year at Marienbad

Rating:
Summary: Just to watch Delphine Seyrig walking.......!
Review: One of the greats! Requires full concentration and a willingness to be hypnotized by the recurring imagery and the music. Delphine is stunning; the Man Who May or May Not Be Her Husband has a handful in Delphine. Greatest line: " We are like two coffins buried side by side in a frozen garden."

Summary: A beautiful movie
Review: Not nearly as boring or silly as everyone said in the 70's, "Last Year At Marienbad" is one of the ten most visually perfect movie ever done - along such classics like "Vertigo" or "2001". And is also one of the most misterious and creepy cinematic experiences ever - it will leave you bedazzled and uneasy for days. Watch it alone with earphones to enjoy the great gothic soundtrack, and it will dawn on you that this one can be one of the greatest horror movie ever! And mrs. Seyrig is a joy to watch. Buy it!

Summary: Haunting and poetic.
Review: The first thing this film reminded me of was Carl Dreyer's "Vampyr" - only more horrifying. As the movie progressed, I realized that some of my favorite films, such as "Celine and Julie Go Boating," "The Discreet Charm of the Bourgeoisie" and "Diva," probably would not exist if it weren't for Resnais's incredible masterpiece. What's funny is when reviewers refer to this film as being an "old style European art film" - as though somehow the art of film has progressed since then. It hasn't. Sadly, it hasn't even tried.

Summary: So bizarre, you must view it..
Review: I watched this film in my upper level French class last semester. This film is so bizarre you have to see it. Once I viewed the film, I began to understand better the workings of film noir types like David Lynch. It is hauntingly poetic in a way and a great chance to see a certain type of film I bet you have never seen before.

Summary: AN ESOTERIC LOOK AT LIFE AFTER DEATH
Review: After death, we have a chance to review our lives, to see our weaknesses and sins and to suffer the consequences. Then we reincarnate and get another chance to relate to the reincarnations of the people we loved or wronged. After an affair results in death, the spirit looks back at the affair, reviewing and processing the events. Once you differentiate the scenes before death from those in the afterlife, it starts to make sense. HINT: Note that some scenes are in color.

Summary: Agree with Maltin on Thissen
Review: Tired show. Good Photography. Boring Movie. Rent this movie

Rating:
Summary: Unexplainable classic
Review: How to write about a film that on one viewing can cause more frights than the average horror movie. Then during a later viewing become one of the funniest movies ever made. A must see.

Summary: One of my favorite movies
Review: This is how good this movie is: I already own it on VHS, I am now buying the wide-screen version (from Amazon), and now that this movie is available on DVD, I am now motivated to buy a DVD player in the next couple of months just so I can get it and watch it in that format... this is one of the very few films I tell people they have to see on a big screen, that video tape does not do it enough justice... but I settle for video and hopefully DVD will be even better

What would I tell someone about the movie? Just see it...

Summary: One of my favorite movies...er, films.
Review: Like "2001: A Space Odyssey", or the poetry of Federico Garcia Lorca, this film is haunting and gorgeous and makes perfect sense, though I'm not sure why.

Rating:
Summary: haunting ethereal poetry
Review: This movie is an exquisite example of phenomenological transcendance. The poetry, and inherent confusion, of love and existence itself is lived and re-lived in the unreal yet supra-real labyrinth of marienbad.
