And again, one of those movies that I will have to watch again sometime to fully appreciate its greatness, because I haven't appreciated it yet. Tarkovsky attempted a slightly different approach, it's even more philosophical and abstract, and it simply didn't sit well with me. The images are interesting, as well as the intertwining of techniques, but I only consider it as interesting.
