I do believe that Stalker may be one of the most beautiful films ever committed to celluloid.
It, like all of Tarkovsky’s work, takes a little patience. You need to live quietly in the moment. But the rewards are beyond measure.
I just stumbled across this little visual love letter to the film and I fell in love with the look and feel of it all over again. I think I’m going to have to schedule a viewing to enter the Zone again soon.
If you haven’t ever seen Stalker I highly recommend it. The images from it will stick with you forever. And yet, every time you watch it it will somehow seem just a little bit different…not quite what you remembered.
Here’s a taste of what you’re in for.
