  This movie is very well rounded (acting, writing, music, cinematography) and profuse with meaning.

  The Sacrifice 1986

  ★★★ Watched 12 Oct 2024 1

  My least favourite Tarkovsky so far. The story just wasn’t captivating, the payoff wasn’t great. The acting was solid but not amazing.

  Ivan's Childhood 1962

  ★★★★ Watched 30 Sep 2024

  Another Tarkovsky film that captures the sober reality of the human condition. This time, it’s an orphaned child solider in the Soviet army who is forced to grow up and deal with the mental anguish of losing your family. The final 15 minutes are some of the best cinema I’ve ever scene.
