Shall we review the lecture....why not?

Can anyone honestly say that they take a deep consideration into other's thoughts? Taken a step back and really tried to develop an understanding into how someone is feeling at an exact time, in an exact situation? La Jetee takes this step back and views the world from behind someone else's eyes.

La Jetee though takes technology and communication into its own hands to develop a French new wave cinema presentation, of a man's memory. La Jetee wanted to take technology to the next level, instead of developing the same predictable movies that society is used to viewing (eg: Western style movies were very popular at this time) La Jetee drills into the hard real issues that society was experiencing.

The threat of nuclear war had arisen and society was being faced with the issues that this could be placed upon them at any moment, without their control. La Jette gives an insight into how one man can experince a moment that would haunt him into adulthood. La Jette taps into his inner emotion, by using dramatic effect. Such dramatic effect represented in La Jetee includes dramatic voice over, detailed still images and the notion of the dramatic effects being represented.

La Jetee displays the idea that if one man's memories are that strong of the past, then they would be able to send him back in time and re-experience this time once more. Throughout this man's experience back in time he revisits the women that's face faunts his mind. They experince moments together, but then that one fateful moment returns, the moment on the jetty. He tries to save her, but he came to the cold hard relisation that you can not escape time.

La Jetee relates to everyday society as society is forever being faced with dramatic issues that we all wish we could go back and change, but when thought about logically time is an object that cant be escaped, we can run but we cant hide. La Jetee opens up a new wave of cinema that many will follow, as they opened the door to realistic cinema, so not just one can feel the emotion behind the experience, but anyone who dares.
