A cornerstone of the French New Wave, the first feature from ALAIN RESNAIS (Last Year at Marienbad) is one of the most influential films of all time. A French actress (Amour's EMMANUELLE RIVA) and a Japanese architect (Woman in the Dunes' EIJI OKADA) engage in a brief, intense affair in postwar Hiroshima, their consuming mutual fascination impelling them to exorcise their own scarred memories of love and suffering. With an innovative flashback structure and an Academy Award–nominated screenplay by novelist MARGUERITE DURAS (India Song), Hiroshima mon amour is a moody masterwork that delicately weaves past and present, personal pain and public anguish.4K digital restoration, with uncompressed monaural soundtrack, from 2015 Audio commentary by film historian Peter Cowie Interviews with director Alain Resnais from 1961 and 1980 Interviews with actor Emmanuelle Riva from 1959 and 2003 Interview with film scholar François Thomas, author of L'atelier d'Alain Resnais, from 2015Interview with music scholar Tim Page about the film's score, from 2015 Revoir Hiroshima . . . , a 2013 program about the film's restoration PLUS: A booklet featuring an essay by critic Kent Jones and excerpts from a 1959 Cahiers du cinéma roundtable discussion about the film
