A major inspiration to subsequent generations of filmmakers, yet never surpassed nor ever matched. L'Atalante is udenibaly one of the most beautiful and rich celebrations of human connection in the history of cinema, not to mention one of the greatest films ever made. Vigo created a dreamlike world and it's absolutely gorgeous to look at.
The ending tears me up every time. It's almost unbelievable how perfect of an ending it is.

Such a poetic, open, free and romantic spirit the film has- and what a tragic loss was Vigo!

Quite surely the most beautiful final shot in the history of the movies.

Yeah, wonderful final scene of course, and in fact there's more it has in common with the great ending of Sansho the Bailiff
