I’m between if I love this or just like it, it’s very slow and confusing but also artistic and makes the situation feel realistic.
It's not for everyone! It's a real peace of Art. Pure reflections from a very hard time
A movie about so many beautiful yet dually tragic things, but it doesn't make any sense to try explaining it. It's poetic and very russian
A spiritual cleansing in the same vein as being burned alive.
Few films are an actual experience. I’m not a religious person but there is something universal about maintaining faith through suffering.
Somber and thought-provoking, good for when you’re feeling quietly philosophical
A long, slow, profound meditation on an artist doubting his ability until realizing he is in greater existential agony by denying his gifts.
Possibly Tarkovsky's most beautiful film - an eternal contender for the greatest piece of cinema of all time.
Tarkovsky's historical epic is eye candy through and through.
Some scenes are pure art; both Tarkovsky and Pasolini considered themselves poets. Maybe challenging without knowledge of Russian history
