The game of nim appearing in Alain Resnais' film Last Year at Marienbad (L'année dernière à Marienbad,
1961). In Marienbad, two players alternately draw counters from one of four nim-heaps
formed by 1, 3, 5 and 7 counters. The player making the last move is the loser. Since
the nim-value of this game is zero, the second player
can always win, which makes Marienbad a distinctly unfair
game.
