Hiroshima Mon Amour

“Why not you, in this town
and on this night
so indistinguishable from any other?”

(Remember: time, the river flowing,
clinging in these very words, this action, to its banks
Remember: this second viewing,
when so little remains of the first time.
Remember: forgetting, how?)

dir. Alain Resnais 1959.
