Review of Nostalgia (1983) by Robert B — 12 Oct 2007
Can't help but describe this film pretentiously: As is the more etymologically accurate usage of the word, this film is about national rather than temporal nostalgia. More painterly than traditionally cinematic, Tarkovsky prefers long, quiet shots - all of which are studied and beautiful.
Admirable for the paradoxical fullness and economy of images and writing - nothing is trivial.
