    Thank you. Elegantly constructed, argued and illustrated. Makes me want to go back and watch all his films again. The point about texture is so true, but I had never been consciously aware of that.

    I think like Tarkovsky lets us get a glimpse what the 4th dimension feels like and the chance to capture time as a substantial thing of this world.

    If you like Tarkovskij, you can find some of his movies (like The mirror, Stalker, Solaris, Andrej Rublew) with English subs on Mosfilm's official channel.
    Here is the link of, for example, The mirror:

    this analysis of meaning is very nice looking but unfortunately quite inaccurate in my opinion. tarkovsky had symbols in his films, especially stalker. he is orthodox christian but he lived under a government that was very hostile towards it. there are however mysteries in his films but that doesnt mean mysteries mean just "anything" as is defined by materialist/platonic thinking. orthodox view life like this, how the narrator says in this video, but there is a logical, philosophical and theological foundation behind it. many if not every single scene cited in this video about meaning or message is delivering a message similar to those familiar of orthodox christian teaching, especially in the russian tradition. lovely video either way!

    Tarkovsky is not overrated but he is definitely overpraised and overhyped. Unsurprisingly, nobody's talking about his conflicts with operators, conflicts with screen writers, nobody even tries to mention acting or unjustifiedly big budgets. Who cares, it's just ancient foreign cinematography – it's rather permanently genius or unknowable due to language barriers. Keep pretending that subtext doesn't exist.

    I like what this video says about Tarkovsky's use of textures and long takes. But I disagree that he is a "narrative nihilist". His narratives are intuitively constructed, true. But they're not without meaning. He, like Lynch, was understandably cagey about there being single "correct" readings of his films — that's a wise position for an artist to take. But you can pretty clearly discern meanings which line up with Tarkovsky's stated philosophical concerns. For example, the opening scene of Andrei Rublev is very consistent with the rest of the film's focus on the lonely creative and spiritual struggle of the artist (a frequent theme in his films).

    October 11, 2019 at 7:48 pm

    When a work of art has no intended meaning, and the interpretation is left entirely open to the audience, I tend to feel it’s all vanity. Like, what’s the point? If you’re not trying to tell me something, why are you saying anything? There may be the case in which a work of art is simply an expression of the artist’s mind, but in this case the artist is not merely making something without a point but is sharing their perspective, which is something more definitive that may be enriching or challenging to the audience in some way. But something made with no intended meaning feels, frankly, like a waste.

    On the other hand, there may be expressions of the subconscious that do have some meaning, perhaps even a meaning that can be shared between the artist and the audience, that is yet imperceptible because it’s subconscious. But in this case I wonder, how can we know if a particular subconscious “meaning” that we’re sharing isn’t something bad or false, something we should be suppressing or overcoming rather than reveling in and expressing? Exposing it could be the first step to overcoming it, but if it’s something that remains imperceptible, how can we make a judgment about it either way, whether it’s good or bad, true or false?
