I Love You, I Love You: the title promises naive romantic fervor, but the repetition proves ominous. A failed suicide agrees to become a guinea pig for scientists exploring time-travel and is caught, not just in a given moment, but in an infinite variety of given moments, all variations on one another. And time's winged chariot will never come to his rescue. It's a science fiction tragedy in comic strip images. Both Resnais and Chris Marker are obsessed with time, and perhaps with a profoundly Marxist sense of history as the nightmare from which man is trying to awaken. Ironically enough, Je t'aime was a good ten years before its time. People weren't then ready for this quiet mixture of science fiction with a love story as subtle as anything in Rohmer and Rivette. But with Marker's La Jetée and Tarkovsky's Solaris it constitutes a holy trinity of meditations on the horrors of eternal life.--Raymond Durgnat, PFA '77, excerpt. 546 In French with English subtitles. 590 PFA 3500-01-9274. |aCOPY-SPECIFC DESCRIPTION: 5 reels of 5 (91 min.) : 1.66:1, opt sd., col. ; 35 mm. polyester print. |aCONDITION NOTE: Last inspected: 2003/02/07; Excellent condition; no head and tail splices; leaders are intact; all splices are section splices, linking A and B reels; only one set of scribed cues at the end of each reel CONDITION NOTE: Last projected (PFA Theater screening): 2005/9/21 essentially new; very good 655 7 Features.|2mim 690 0 French films. 700 1 Resnais, Alain,|d1922-2014 700 1 Sternberg, Jacques. 700 1 Boffety, Jean. 700 1 Georges-Picot, Olga. 700 1 Rich, Claude,|d1929-2017 700 1 Ferjac, Anouk. 935 GLADN51088351 948 PFA 3500-01-9274.
