‘Last Year at Marienbad’ (dir. Alain Resnais, 1961)
In October 2023, during the release of ‘Killers of the Flower Moon,’ Scorsese shared on his Letterboxd account a list of the 10 best ‘widescreen films’ of all time. One of the films he put on the list is Alain Resnais’ arthouse masterpiece ‘Last Year at Marienbad,’ a surreal story of a man and woman staying at a palatial hotel who may or may not have met the year before. —WC
