Mirror

In my opinion this is the greatest film ever made. A rewatch confirmed my opinion. The last half an hour or so is genuinely breathtaking, beautiful and intelligent. It’s a masterpiece of art and a film everyone should see during their life. Peak.

Mirror

Probably the greatest film I’ve ever seen, or at least one of. Genuinely unbelievable, some of the scenes and poems in this are literally perfection. When she’s killing the chicken to eat is one of the best pieces of cinema I’ve ever seen, I know it sounds strange but it makes sense when you’ve seen the film. Don’t watch it for the plot, watch it for the achievement it is. A true masterpiece.

Mirror

Mirror (1975) is poetic, personal, and dreamlike, blending memory, history, and emotion in a very unconventional way. It can be challenging to follow, but the imagery and mood are incredibly powerful. Overall, Mirror is a deeply introspective and beautiful film that feels more like an experience than a story.

Memory doesn’t move forward or backward—it floats. A masterpiece by Tarkovsky.

Mirror

Rüzgâr, kaybedilenleri, özlenenleri hissettiren bir imgeyken, ateş yıkımı, toprak yaşamı, su ise akıp giden zamanı anlatan birer metafordur.  “ölen bir adamın vicdanıyla yüzleşmesinin hikâyesi”

Mirror

“I sense that it’s only a dream. Then joy is clouded, for I know I’ll wake up.” Mirrormay be Andrei Tarkovsky’smost impressive film, if not his most impenetrable, as he abandons the constraints of narrative in lieu of a much more poetic unraveling of a dying man’s life. Difficult to adequately describe, Mirrorseems to be tackling many intersecting moments in everyday life. War. Life. Death. Art. Duty. Innocence. Cinema. Poetry. Nature. And so much more I probably missed, as it’s nearly impossible to process in one sitting. It’s use of soundscapes is interesting, as it treats it as a piece of the music.Eduard Artemyev does manage to bringTarkovsky’senigmatic direction to life, through his innovative techniques to meld life, nature, and music into one moment. If there is on thing to take away from the interviews that the Criterion Collection brought with the BluRay, it’s that Tarkovsky was unmoored by the thought that something would stop him from achieving his vision. We are invited along in his fervent exploration of life, and the meaning of it, and does so with such tenderness, modesty, and profound resonance, I found myself deeply moved. I have never had the pleasure to experience a film such as Mirror, and how daringly honest and personal it is to its director, until now. The last five minutes left me awestruck — there is no question about it: Tarkovsky’sMirroris cinema in it’s purest form. Mysterious and indefinable.
