In Reply to: The "Stalker" like all of his films, especially the later ones, is like posted by tinear on May 1, 2009 at 07:18:43:
I wrote before that I don't like Stalker, and it might be worth repeating that like many other directors Tark was capable of overplaying his deck.
He is an undeniable master of imagery - but usually not just for imagery sake (like Greenaway), but as tool allowing him to delve into workings of human mind. In Stalker that connection was lost, I think. We have tons of imagery, but no associations. You can say that too much is left to imagination... so much that it quickly becomes clear there is no message.
It is fine by me, but imagery alone is not enough to elevate the film to the truly magnificent status.
So when I think Tarkovsky I think The Mirror, Solaris, Andrey Rublev, but not Stalker.
