Review of Russian Ark (2002) by James W — 20 Apr 2006
90 minutes, 1 uncut take. Sokurov takes us through the hallowed halls of the massive and epic Hermitage museum in St Petersburg with the help of a French aristocrat guide. We go through all the crucial stages in Russian history beginning with the entry of the Russian royal family,and ending in the present day.
Sumptuous costume and beautifully choregraphed dance scenes make this a perfect film. Ideal for anyone with a passion for cinema.
