  • She's talking about her dead German lover. The cellar was a memory.

  • This movie is so intriguing and elegantly beautiful. . . I rented it from a library and bought the film the next day. Another great film by Resnais was "Last Year at Marienbad". I enjoy watching Criterion and art house films! Even though I'm still young, I adore Ozu, Kurosawa, Pabst, Blier, Renoir, and so on. . .

    I have one question: Duras was said to have based most of her works off of her own personal experiences. Which elements of her life does this illustrate?

  • I absolutely love this movie so much! I read the book often. Duras' delivery of these lines has inspired me to plan a visit to Nevers, France. Leaving on Nov 3rd for the International Jazz Festival a Nevers! See you all there! Next is Hiroshima!

    Well, this is a classic. And of course I like a classic, that's why they're classics to begin with. I MUST say though, this movie is just dull. So dull, that I think DULL really sums up the whole experience. Not doll, dull. Well, I guess you really have to buy in to the hype to appreciate this.. dullness.

  • @mystarwood I read your comments on Hiroshima Mon Amour and it made me happy as I love this movie. And Last Year at Marienbad is wonderful too. issues of memory and love. Duras did use her personal experiences. So intense. Given what you have written I think you would like Before the Revolution by Bertolucci---which I think is the greatest film of all time. You can see it in its entirety on youtube. Anyway thanks for your comments.

  • why he said you are Nevers? ......Nevers meaning never? war never never never?

  • Aha "Nevers" is town where I live in France ! A bit of the film was shot there :)

  • i never saw the whole film....

    can someone explain this scene to me? was that cellar a dream? what does she mean by her lover being dead when hes sitting infront of her.....or was she talking about her dead lover
