Hiroshima Mon Amour, the first feature by Alain Resnais, is one of the most influential films of all time and a masterwork of the French New Wave. A French actress (Emmanuelle Riva) and a Japanese architect (Eiji Okada) develop a brief, intense affair in postwar Hiroshima, which brings forth memories of love and suffering. With a creative flashback structure and an Academy Award–nominated screenplay by Marguerite Duras, this groundbreaking film artfully interweaves past and present.
