There's some nice things in that image. You can't just sprinkle in some actual shit stuff and pretend your image isn't retarded.

I've only seen Rublev, saw it for the first time less than 2 weeks ago... I thought it was great. I really wish I hadn't been spoiled about the ending (the bell). I read a synopsis... bad move.
It's my favorite film of 1966 now, even though The Good, The Bad and The Ugly was in my 3x3 at one point:
My current '66 rankings:
Andrei Rublev
Au Hasard Balthazar
A Man for All Seasons
The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly
Grand Prix
Tokyo Drifter
Return of the Magnificent Seven

A biography of Russia's greatest icon painter where he never even puts brush to plaster, where the climactic artistic achievement in the film is not even his, where he is tormented by the memories of his mentor and some crazy homeless girl that he sort of adopts
About as deep as the milk puddles that Tarkovsky loves to shoot in his every film

eh great film
you're right that it's a shit biography but it didn't even pretend to be one which is better than I can say about biopics. I don't think I've ever seen one that was near accurate, unless it was a documentary (please recommend actually accurate and good non-documentary-style biopics if you can). I see it as Tarkovsky displaying what he saw in the paintings, then showing the paintings.

What do you consider to be a deep movie?

>I see it as Tarkovsky displaying what he saw in the paintings,
Please remind me of that Rublev painting where a bunch of Turks raped and massacred a Russian village

Well Tarkovsky's film really made me look at ALL paintings in a new way... made me feel stupid for trying to look into the painting instead of into the painter, which is far more interesting. When I think of how powerful dreams are, but how difficult it is to express them, I realize how the most intense experiences can be the most difficult to communicate. We can see the work as a midpoint between us and where the other person is, rather than just trying to get to the work. The bell is not shown for its ornamentation, or as some "great work" by some "great artist", what is really highlighted is what's going on in the boy's soul.
The minds of great artists can be far more interesting than what they are able to produce—we can try imagining what led them to make what they did. Rublev's paintings do not impress me nearly as much as van Eyck's or Holbein the Younger, but if I paint in my mind the best possible version of what Rublev is trying to do, it is more edifying than just critiquing craft. That's what I enjoyed most realizing with the aid of the film.
