| Questions |
|
| 1. | Why does Resnais place this scene at the train station? Is there a metaphorical intention? |
| 2. | Note that the background music and the voice-over commentary begin at exactly the same time. In what sense does the music become a “sign” in this film? |
| 3. | How does the protagonist’s state of mind change here? What image does she have of herself? (What does “dime novel story” mean here?) Can you offer a psychological explanation? What does she finally realize about the Japanese man? |
