Is it? I watched Tarkovsky's "Mirror" and liked it. I'm down for more by him, ty anon

is it better than sokurov's in your opinion?

>>7359018
i haven't seen sokurov's, but svankmajer's is more like a comedy, with puppets, slow motion and stuff

i prefer it to Muranu's, which is good but you know, doesn't have puppets

I'll give it a go, thanks

For a trip read gertrude stein's opera Doctor Faustus Lights the Lights

Anyone have thoughts on Sergei Bondarchuk's War and Peace?

His adaptation of Alice is fantastic.

Talking about faust, I dropped it when I got to part 2 as I heard that you need extensive knowledge of greek mythology and I'm pretty ignorant in that matter. What works are necessary to fully apreciate faust?

Tarkovsky's Solaris is pretty good too. Tarkovsky overall is pretty good.

Lord of the rings. The shining. Fight club.

Faust by Murnau is the true GOAT
