This is going to sound pretentious, but screw it, you asked for it.

Stop thinking of film as literature told with images. Instead, think of it as poetry told with images: plot and characters take a backseat to a raw emotional response to what's on the screen.

Last Year in Marienbad is the story of two star crossed lovers, one of which can't remember the other. There are only three main characters, none of which have names. The story is timeless: a man yearns for a woman who cannot bring herself to allow herself to be with him. It embodies every romantic story ever told, all at once.

TL;Dr: it's a love story that covers all possible angles while being vague enough to never fit into just one. It's a masterpiece.

completely missed the point. maybe take a film class or two?

his first point about film not being literature with images is completely valid, though.

Wait till you're half asleep to watch this film. You will reach a zen like state and experience true Kino.
