A great movie

I really liked "Twelve monkeys" so I was really curious about "La Jetée" because it was inspired by or a remake of this movie. It blew me away. It is certainly one of the most original movie I have ever seen. If you truly love movies (I'm not talking about all those commercial flicks that everyone sees...) and if you think of movies as a work of Art, you should check this one out. Very inspiring... read more

Tiedoksi siis kaikille elokuvain ystäville: www.hulu.com/criterion Tuolla on tämän viikonlopun ilmaiseksi katsottavissa käytännössä koko Criterionin katalogi hyvällä kuvanlaadulla.

"10.2. Katselin tämmöisen ja annoin viisi tähteä. Muodoltaan ja kuvastoltaan uniikki ja täydellinen, äärimmäisen vangitseva tulevaisuusvisio, tavallaan still-kollaasina jopa liikkuvaa kuvaa jouhevampi kokonaisuus.

Hélène Chatelain has maybe one of the most perfect faces for such images as seen in this. That alone could have kept me interested.
