Thank you for this insightful analysis of the film! It really allowed me to appreciate and understand it in a new way, as unfortunately much of the film went over my head upon my viewing, haha. There was also much that I didn't pick up on so I definitely feel richer now after having read this. :)
Thanks, Brittany! ^_^ I am so glad that my post brought more insight and appreciation for the film! My goal achieved! hehe. I actually felt the same way writing this, as writing it all out allowed me to really process everything going on in the film. It seems like with Tarkovsky's films you have to watch them multiple times, as I am always like "What?" when I watch them the first time too. haha. He is just so intentional with what he is creating within the camera, and I love noticing new things every time I rewatch his films!
