Reviews

[La Jetée] evokes much of the film's impact, successfully conveying its lyrical, dreamlike quality and its message of hope and love.—Booklist

[La Jetée is] a remarkable short film about romance and postapocalyptic time travel...you can get a further sense of La Jetée's power in the photobook version...a superb job of preserving the sense of fragmentation, fragility, and stark visual beauty that has made La Jetée a classic.—Wired
