La Jetee

The 1962 Sci-Fi film that follows survivors of a nuclear war, who experiment with time travel to try and save the present day... The film is told through still black and white images. I had seen the film before on my foundation course, but it didnt really serve any purpose to me back then.. What makes it so compelling to me, is the use of light and also the music that gives you a spooky feeling....



For such a short film, it has made a huge impact on modern day cinema. The images where the scientists experiment on different subjects gives me an uneasy feeling... It is amazing how so much emotion comes from single shots...
