    ★★★★

    Because time destroys everything. Because certain acts are irreparable. Because man is an animal. Because the will to get revenge is a natural impulse. Because most crimes go unpunished. Because the loss of a loved one destroys like lightening. Because love is the source of life. Because premonitions don't change the course of things. Because time reveals everything. The worst and the best. Disturbing rape scene . AHHhh Monica !

    A beautifully poetic and enigmatic Tarkovsky art film. It's his greatest masterpiece.Mirror’s stunning aesthetic universe certainly makes a good case for such an approach to autobiography, with certain visual and auditory motifs lingering long in the mind. These moments – such as a barn gloriously ablaze, Alexei’s mother Maria floating transcendentally above her bed, and a vanishing fingerprint left by a ghostly apparition – are presented in a dreamlike manner that makes them feel at once surreal and yet more real than reality itself.
