Hiroshima mon Amour

Question 1

Scenes for DeLeuze

Answer 1

1. Empty and disconnected spaces:
   - Empty restaurant/tea room where they sit
   - Empty Street that they walk through
   - Them disconnected from the world in bed with curtains drawn
2. Irrational Cuts that aid to create a time image:
   - From extreme close ups in bed to tracking shots or montage close-ups of Hiroshima
   - Recollection images are often dissolved into one another, while cuts to the present are normal
   - This opposes normal flashback tradition and implies there is something else at work
3. Tracking shot that plunges spectators into time:
   - Hospital of Hiroshima
   - Streets of Hiroshima

The past affects her feelings and thoughts, as she cannot love a new man.

   - Camera movement back in restaurant connotes their unstable relationship
