La Jetée - 8/10
Sans Soleil - 6.5/10
Two movies by French filmmaker Chris Marker. La Jetee is a short made entirely of stills and deals with post-apocalyptic time travel, very interesting and curious movie that I watched a couple times and enjoyed a good bit. Terry Gilliam pretty much remade it as 12 Monkeys but I haven't seen that yet.
Sans Soleil is feature length and is a sort of faux documentary/travelogue using mainly footage Marker shot in Japan set to a female narrator reading letters sent to her by the ficticious camera man. Hard to explain. It was nice enough, but I just never really got into it that much.
