To Feel. To Trust The Feeling. I

Tarkovsky For Me Is The Greatest [director], The One Who Invented A New Language, True To The Nature Of Film, As It Captures Life As A Reflection, Life As A Dream.

When We Experience A Film, We Consciously Prime Ourselves For Illusion. Putting Aside Will And Intellect, We Make Way For It In Our Imagination. The Sequence Of Pictures Plays Directly On Our Feelings.

One Has To Manage Alone As Best One Can. (karin Bergman)

When We Experience A Film, We Consciously Prime Ourselves For Illusion. Putting Aside Will And Intellect, We Make Way For It In Our Imagination. The Sequence Of Pictures Plays Directly On Our Feelings. Music Works In The Same Fashion; I Would Say That There Is No Art Form That Has So Much In Common With Film As Music. Both Affect Our Emotions Directly, Not Via The Intellect. And Film Is Mainly Rhythm; It Is Inhalation And Exhalation In Continuous Sequence.

There Are Moments When I Can Wander Through My Childhood's Landscape, Through Rooms Long Ago, Remember How They Were Furnished, Where The Pictures Hung On The Walls, The Way The Light Fell. It's Like A Film - Little Scraps Of A Film, Which I Set Running And Which I Can Reconstruct To The Last Detail - Except Their Smell.
