Reviews (1)
Yet another one of those films that I'll have to watch again someday to fully appreciate its greatness because so far I haven't fully grasped it. Tarkovsky tried a slightly different approach, it's even more philosophical and abstract, and that just didn't sit well with me. The imagery is intriguing, as is the blending of techniques, but I only see it as interesting.
