DVD Reviews of Nostalghia - 1983, Andrei Tarkovsky [Import, All Regions]
DVD Review: Only available version of a masterpiece
Summary: 5 Stars
This Korean edition is the only available and affordable DVD version of this Tarkovsky's masterpiece. Picture and sound quality are perfect; however we would expect The Criterion Collection to come out with a remastered version sooner or later. In the meantime this is the way to watch such a beautiful work. For those new to Tarkovsky, this is poetic cinema at its best from a Russian filmmaker who denounced banality and shortsightedness in today's dominating materialistic societies (still in a time of materialist communism ruling the USSR) and searched for true spirituality with a real challenging style of filmmaking. Tarkovsky makes patient films, avoiding the rush of contemporary hollywood cinema (as a statement too) and rediscovering the beauty of the surrounding creation. Narration plays with time, with dreams, with colors, but somewhow everything flows magically. Camerawork and lighting make art almost in every frame, while dialogs and situations bring us to sobriety from the foolishness of a culture that boasts modernity but hides spiritual emptyness. If you're familiar with the author but haven't seen Nostalgia, this is another must, as are the seven films he managed to direct before dying of cancer. It may be one of the slowest in terms of action, but the message is strong and beautiful: a traveling writer finds the power of nostalgia for his land while studying the story of another man who's own nostalgia made him return to slavery rather than renouncing to his beloved country. Through his journey he will accept the challenge of a mad man -to cross a natural pool with a lighted candle- as he finds that such an act makes much more sense than what it seems.
