Here are some most beautiful scenes from movies of Andrei Tarkovsky.
About Andrei Tarkovsky
Andrei Arsenyevich Tarkovsky was a Soviet film director, screenwriter, and film theorist. He is widely regarded as one of the greatest and most influential filmmakers in Soviet and world cinema. His films explored spiritual and metaphysical themes, and are noted for their slow pacing and long takes, dreamlike visual imagery, and preoccupation with nature and memory.
Tarkovsky incorporated levitation scenes into several of his films, most notably Solaris. To him these scenes possess great power and are used for their photogenic value and magical inexplicability. Water, clouds, and reflections were used by him for their surreal beauty and photogenic value, as well as their symbolism, such as waves or the forms of brooks or running water. Bells and candles are also frequent symbols. These are symbols of film, sight and sound, and Tarkovsky’s film frequently has themes of self-reflection.
Tarkovsky developed a theory of cinema that he called “sculpting in time“. By this he meant that the unique characteristic of cinema as a medium was to take our experience of time and alter it. Unedited movie footage transcribes time in real time. By using long takes and few cuts in his films, he aimed to give the viewers a sense of time passing, time lost, and the relationship of one moment in time to another.
