Tarkovsky's Influence


Recommended Posts

Andrei Zvyagintsev,

 

His first film "The Return" won Gold Lion at Venice. It is great.

 

His new film I just saw at a film festival "The Banishment" I found really really great.

 

There is no doubt there is heavy Tarkovsky influence especially in his second film, however it is more of a homage to him. Plus you have to be really really talented to pull of being compared to him I think.

I can give you two directors that I think their work are influenced by Andrei Tarkovsky's work, the first is Theo Angelopoulos, if you didn't see any of his films this is the time to start.

 

The second is Aleksandr Sokurov, I have to say that personally I don't like him very much, sometimes because he seems to me like an imitation of tarkovsky, but still he have interesting work sometime, like "Mother and Son".

 

Hope this help,

 

Oron.
