In Reply to: Shouldn't a film be entertaining? posted by Jon L on June 8, 2004 at 10:31:45:
There are two ways to be entertained by Russian Ark.One, to appreciate the technical achievement of the film, undeniably impressive. Film students/critics are most likely to be entertained in this fashion.
Two, to appreciate the historical context of the film. History buffs and people well grounded in Russian history in particular are most likely to be entertained in this fashion.
Neither did it for me (although I know enough to appreciate the technical achievement). As a result, I also failed to make it all the way through the film. But it is certainly not an inherently "un-entertaining" film, and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it to the right people, with the appropriate caveats.
