When I first saw Hiroshima Mon Amour back in late 70s, I hated every minute of it. To me, at that time, it was the worst movie I had ever seen. The story was out of focus, the characters looked pale and without any emotions. But it was then.Now, after more than 25 years, after a heartbreaking episode of my life, I begin to appreciate the subtle theme that Duras and Renais wanted to convey : It is not easy to forget a person's past. What I want to say is, for those who find this movie hard to swallow might try to watch it, say, ten or fifteen years from now, maybe he or she would have a new perspective about the movie or his life, for that matter.
