the russian director. does anyone here like his work? i was very impressed by andrei rublyov so I went on a binge: sacrifice .. the stalker .. solaris (the original, not the george clooney remake!). and i haven't been disappointed. amazing capacity to transfigure human spirituality into landscape, atmosphere.. i still haven't seen nostalghia. my local video rental store doesn't have it :( |

he's my favourite filmmaker ever, bar none. i've seen all his films... and i'm even going to get to do a course on him next year... i'm very very excited! my personal faves are Stalker and Mirror. |

one of the greatest directors ever, i'v only seen Solaris and Stalker... moth immediately went into my top 10 films of all time list. Can't wait to be able to afford his other films on dvd! |

"solaris" is super, just super. I've had "stalker" for some time, haven't come around to watching it yet though. |

it's being offered by the U of A next fall... it's not all Tarkovsky, but it's okay, because the other two directors we will be focusing on are Stan Brakhage (who also rules a great deal), and Hans-Jurg Syderberg (who i know absolutely nothing about).... |

I've seen Stalker. It made me feel quite weird, which means that I liked it a lot, I guess. |

I have seen his "zjerkalo" ("the mirror") - excellent, emotional stuff, but I do not think his art is exactly my cup of tea :).. prefer Lynch's darkness, Fellini's perversion and Kar Wai's rush. Tarkowski's too sad in a way I do not like. |

agree re fellini. 8 1/2 is probably my favorite movie. |

Solaris and Stalker are bloody brilliant. I have Nostalghia recorded off the telly, but it's on an unmarked tape that I can't seem to find. Anyone in the Los Angeles area might want to check out the Egyptian movie theatre in Hollywood, as I heard they will be showing all of his films there in a month or two. |
