La jetée, 1962
Dir. by Chris Marker
Necks are beautiful. This film has the most beautiful love scene. It moves.
J Hoberman's Tribute to Chris Marker
Chris Marker had a profound effect on me, his cinema captured my imagination and opened my mind. Marker used cinema in ways that others dared not and because of this I iincluded him in that small group of artists that dramatically changed our world. *
