Hiroshima Mon Amour
Alain Resnais's widely acknowledged masterpiece is a work of profound beauty. Beyond its sensitive presentation of a most unusual (and then, quite daring) love story, the film is one of the most visually striking black and white films ever made. Both Riva and Okada project vulnerabilities and emotions that feel achingly real, and we stand right beside them in their alternating bliss and torment. A mesmerizing, deeply affecting film.
