New 4K Restoration of the Arty French Movie to end all Arty French Movies.

This enigmatic narrative, written by Alain Robbe-Grillet and directed by Alain Resnais, was one of the most impactful art-films of the ’60s, setting a tone of sexy, stylish inscrutability that still echoes through the halls of cinephilia to this day. In it, a nameless woman, played by Delphine Seyrig (DAUGHTERS OF DARKNESS) is haunted by a similarly anonymous man (Giorgio Albertazzi), who insists that the pair shared a rich history together, which she has no memory of. A riddle of a film, in which elegant figures, dressed in the chicest attire of the age (gowns by Coco Chanel) glide like ghosts through an unimaginably opulent European Grand Hotel.
