Diary entries forThe Sacrifice
The Sacrifice
My final feature length Tarkovsky, I have now watched them all. It’s hard to understate how great his filmography is, maybe the greatest of all time. This, for me, is one of his best. A beautiful masterpiece which flows well and is clear what the message of the film is. Sacrifice. Sure, you’re left with many questions, but the answers are what you believe. Beautiful.

The Sacrifice
I think the best thing I could’ve done today was starting Tarkovsky’s last film as my first. I think truly the pinnacle of being able to express a figment of your own personal dilemma in the midst of a sickness and expand on that idea in a film through a multitude of expressions in symbolism, philosophy, and stigmatizing visual prowess. It’s so ironic because I had no idea about him fighting cancer in the midst of this, and in the first 40 mins I immediately said to myself this feels so personal. It’s so refreshing to see someone be able to emit such an unwavering essence in a single landscape with minimal effects, a vision that was so obviously clear. This to me flipped between an unsettling eerieness while also showcasing a poetic purity proving the polarity of existence, and i think that’s all shown in symbols with the way of lighting, cleansing of hands, portraits, especially the ying yang worn on his back i think is masked by his pursuit of restoration. were all anticipating a purpose in our lives and i think tarkovsky found his purpose with this farewell letter to his son and id like to say to us aswell. Really some of the best work i’ve seen thus far.
