Mirror1975

Mirror is much copied, but as the recent run of Terrence Malick films demonstrates, eschewing time and plot for flotsam and psyche is much harder than Tarkovsky makes it look.

导演不是导演，电影不是电影，是意识流的海市蜃楼，是灵魂跳出躯壳的一场梦，是最最飘逸的诗集。塔可夫斯基像行吟诗人般翻阅自己的记忆，这种沉浸态度真让人着迷。

While there is barely a story to tie it all together, The Mirror finds connections in the longings of Alexei. He longs to understand his past, his land, his family, his inspirations and fears, and that’s what the movie is able to convey in its abstract but persuasive way.
