Additional information
The published 'scenario et dialogues' (Duras 1960) of the film 'Hiroshima, Mon Amour' (1959) feature precise technical specifications of sound and image and more novelistic passages. This article explores Marguerite Duras's text as a particular example of how the written component of the screen idea might function on the page and as part of a dialogue with the director. It also examines the way that the script's concern with problematizing and drawing attention to the process of representation makes it a palpable and controlling presence in the resulting film.
