What an amazing short film, especially when every part of it seems so wrong. There's a narrator with a very boring voice. There are still shots through the movie -- with almost no movement shown on the screen. The whole picture feels a little washed out. Add to that a pretty tired trope from science fiction. And yet, it's totally mesmerizing from start to finish.

I won't fault La Jetee too much for its unorthodox filming style, although I will say that it may have hindered certain storytelling aspects. What a fascinating and interesting plot, however: one that has survived much of science fiction culture and finds itself nestled in some of our favorite time travel flicks. La Jetee is no doubt an inspiration to many, and it's easy to see why. A thought-provoking short.

Transcends the medium by simplifying the medium. As a viewer you sort of melt and animate the images yourself as they transition seamlessly through time. Burning themselves in your mind as though they were your own fleeting memories.

Preferred to Sans Soleil (watched around the same time), but this left me a little bit cold too. Maybe because it feels more like a fantasy than an exploration of what’s imprinted on his mind. The photography is really emotive, but it’s too slight to leave a big mark.

The way this film is told (using only still images, with music and voice overs) keeps being avant-garde even today. Based on that i guess we could say this is an experimental film, and it's a damn good one on that. The images may be still on this film, but Chris Marker still manages to make you feel emotions, and that is a great achievement. It's like this film came out from a different timeline, a timeline where movies are near perfection. If you haven't seen this yet, please do.
