La jetee

Almost forgot about the blog.. La jette was a very interesting little film. I was amazed by the fact of how i was able to get lost in a film of transitioning slides of still photographs. Chris Marker really captured the essence of his film. The start of the movie being as well the end was very interesting and articulate. I got a feel for the way the man in the film is being faded in and out of reality through the way Marker created his film. Through the stills reality and the present seems to not exist at all and found myself searching for it just as the man in the film had started to do. I briefly read the script prior to viewing the film and i can say my expectations where greatly exceeded.
