About
A screening of the film "Je t'aime, je t'aime". Director Alain Resnais made this 1968 film, which stars Claude Rich as an unsuccessful suicide who, leaving hospital, agrees to take part in a time-travel experiment that brings fragments of his past rushing back in disordered shards. It has been called a quiet mixture of science fiction with a love story as subtle as anything in Rohmer or Rivette. The showing on this day includes an introduction by filmmaker Kogonada.

Critics
6.7Good
Critics praise the inventive editing and a moving, fragmented portrait of memory, seeing a lasting influence on later cinema. They fault the awkward, illogical science-fiction premise and a narrative that demands patience and taste for the avant-garde.
