What makes his films so good? What is so stand-outish about him?
His sincerity.
Coincidentally, Tommy Wiseau has a lot of sincerity, too. Sincere artists always garner a following.
Also, he's a clever writer and understands the emotional gravity of a scene when directing.

how do you know he's sincere?

congrats for destroying your own argument

OP's question was about movie quality

congrats the last word of your post is actually where your answer should have begun but you probably have no idea what directing is about in the first place

Retard, art is intuitive, if you don't know what I'm talking about its probably why you're not an auteur
Pace & the T A N G I B I L I T Y of his shots.
his entire filmography is 100% comfy

Dude you won't get very far trying to rationalize "artistic cinema", you can't break it down and analyze it under the usual formula because it's not a by-the-numbers hollywood flick.

>art is intuitive
brainfarts like this have allowed fucking parasites to make "art" for the last 50 years
also if you actually had read about the auteur theory you'd know there's nothing intuitive about it
there's nothing intuitive and subjective about art, if you can't play the guitar you can't play the guitar
>>70188597
yes you can, theorists and filmmakers have been doing it since the beginning of cinema
and I really don't see the connection with Hollywood flicks, where the fuck did it come from?
>>70188613
>there's nothing intuitive and subjective about art
Care to elaborate? Can 8½ be objectively better than Citizen Kane or vice-versa?
>>70188916
I just thought you were trying to analyze it while using irrelevant criteria to this type of film, like plot progression, character development etc...
If you weren't, then i'd love to hear your thoughts on him

he's boring and makes movies that people have to say they enjoy otherwise people who wear glasses and scarves yearround might think you're stupid

I wear cargo shorts and socks with sandals and I think you're stupid.
Tarkovsky's films have a deeply spiritual and poetic subtext and deal with questions of mortality, existential anguish and faith. The subjects of his films are often singular individuals on a search for purpose. Though his films contain recurring imagery (horses, spilled milk, running/flowing water), they are not merely symbols but images unto themselves. It's no wonder that Tarkovsky was a lover of Japanese poetry and his films, like the haiku, finds beauty in things as they are or in how they are juxtaposed with each other or the world. Tarkovsky's aesthetic system, complimented by an unusually rich cinematography, is one that refocuses film as a medium to reach out and touch the deepest part of us that makes us human.

He's former Navy and a private investigator living on Robins estate in Hawaii while making film. Pretty impressive. Also drives a Ferrari and has a friend that owns a bar and another that flies a helicopter.

You're mistaking quality for competence.
Should I start with Stalker or Solaris?
>>70199639
Solaris is watchable. Stalker is good if you have insomnia and really need to just go to sleep.
>>70199639
This guy >>70199993 is a pleb, but you should start with Ivans Childhood, and go through his films chronologically
