Stalker

Possibly my favorite films of all time, without a doubt my favorite Russian film.

An absolute masterpiece.

Let everything that’s been planned come true. Let them believe. And let them have a laugh at their passions. Because what they call passion actually is not some emotional energy, but just the friction between their souls and the outside world. And most important, let them believe in themselves. Let them be helpless like children, because weakness is a great thing, and strength is nothing. When a man is just born, he is weak and flexible. When he dies, he is hard and insensitive. When a tree is growing, it’s tender and pliant. But when it’s dry and hard, it dies. Hardness and strength are death’s companions. Pliancy and weakness are expressions of the freshness of being. Because what has hardened will never win. —

Stalker

(From the film Stalker, directed by Andrei Tarkovsky)

My love for this movie

Can not be explained by blogging.

swintons: Andrei Tarkovsky delighted in quoting in his diary all the complimentary things Ingmar Bergman was reported to have said about his films, and Bergman, of course, went on record as calling Tarkovsky “the greatest” — the two never met, even though they had offices in the same building while Tarkovsky was shooting The Sacrifice in Stockholm (starring Erland Josephson, one of Bergman’s regulars). According to Sven Nykvist, Bergman’s primary cinematographer who worked on The Sacrifice with Tarkovsky, they avoided one another out of shyness. — Vida T. Johnson and Graham Petrie (The films of Andrei Tarkovsky: A Visual Fugue - 1994) I’d fanboy this. I AM fanboying this!
