“The beautiful is hidden from the eyes of those who are not searching for the truth, for whom it is contra-indicated. But the profound lack of spirituality of those people who see art and condemn it, the fact that they are neither willing nor ready to consider the meaning and aim of their existence in any higher sense, is often masked by the vulgarly simplistic cry, 'I don't like it!', 'It's boring!' It is not a point that one can argue; but it like the utterance of a man born blind who is being told about a rainbow. He simply remains deaf to the pain undergone by the artist in order to share with others the truth he has reached.”

Is that one of the chuckle brothers?
"Comrade, I fucking loved Star Wars and Terminator!"
Bullshit Soviet spirituality that was just a reactionary response to godlessness. See also: Bulat Okudzhava.

What a typical soviet hack praising something because it was painstaking.
"Now I'm the Stalker"

Tarkovsky isn't for everyone, and that's really ok.

One of the most untalented, unintelligent directors ever. Stalker and the mirror were both pure trash
>>68023985
Agreed. A film doesn't need to have universal appeal
>>68023989
>implying Tark isnt a huge hypocrite that has rejected other director's works for being 'vulgar'
>>68024009

Damn, and I haven't seen any of those in your top tier. Really trying to find a copy of The Mirror. You didn't like Solaris?

One of my favorite OST pieces bar none
in order
mirror
stalker
nostalghia
andrei rublev
solaris
the sacrifice
ivans childhood
for what it's worth, i can see why people say solaris is his worst, i think im missing decent chunks of the sacrifice.. and mirror is a legitimate masterpiece that makes his other movies seem slightly worse by some sort of default comparison, which is entirely unfair but oh well.
>“Modern mass culture, aimed at the 'consumer', the civilisation of prosthetics, is crippling people's souls, setting up barriers between man and the crucial questions of his existence, his consciousness of himself as a spiritual being.”
is he right?
