Yeah, that was a bit strong of a word. However, I've always felt sorry for how Tarkovsky was treated. It's obvious that he loved Russia deeply. - @Thursday, September 12, 2013 10:56 PM

This makes the frustration of being the only one at my high school who knows of, let alone loves Tarkovsky, all the more suffocating. I've started introducing teachers to his works to fight the current. - @Wednesday, September 11, 2013 10:46 PM

He was exiled by that point. The guy was kind of a persecuted artist in his day. - @Wednesday, September 11, 2013 10:44 PM

Three shots, four minutes. Tarkovsky is my favourite filmmaker for many reasons. That's just one of them. - @Sunday, April 7, 2013 9:42 AM

the most Chehovian piece by Tarkovskij, it's surprising that he needed to go abroad to make it; on the other hand it was the year of Tschernobyl i prefer "Solaris" - @Friday, April 15, 2011 1:47 PM

I love solaris. But why must the other tarkovsky films leave you in such a terrible state of depression? I don't enjoy that. Sorry. Defenitely one for the bookshelf though. Jag giller den film bara för att förbättre min svensk och för interessant fotografie. Inte för nanting annars. Eller kan naagon försöker talar mig varför han brinna up sin bostadt? Jag känna fel. jag behöver psychatrie ochsaa efter titta paa filmen. :-( helsingar/paka - @Saturday, January 30, 2010 7:36 PM
