Review of Russian Ark (2002) by Nick G — 26 Nov 2008
This must have been amazing on a big screen :( a 90 minute one shot trip through the hermitage museum with a cast of thousands from various historical periods; it's surreal at first but soon won me over.
it's completely gorgeous and ends like a dream with the last imperial ball at the winter palace, 1913. i'm sure it's not for everyone but it's a feast for art lovers and history buffs as well as being a full-length feature film accomplished in a single take, on the 4th try I believe.
