"One of the most enigmatic films in cinema history . . . a visually rapturous experience" (Peter Keough). Recently re-released in the States to great acclaim and lineups down the block, Last Year at Marienbad centres on a mystery: Did X really meet A last year at Marienbad, or is he merely trying to seduce A away from her sinister husband M with a false story (and is M really A’s husband anyway)? Robbe-Grillet’s script is legendary for its ingenious play with time and memory, and Delphine Seyrig became an instant icon as A, impossibly chic in her Chanel and sleek chignon. The formal gardens, baroque balustrades, and rococo hallways of the Marienbad château constitute one of cinema’s most instantly recognizable landscapes. Scored with eerie organ music, and shot in elegant widescreen black and white by the great cinematographer Sacha Vierny, Marienbad is enduringly enigmatic. Peter Greenaway recently wrote: "I have been trying to re-make this film ever since."
