Colleagues considered them a harmonious couple, and therefore Andrei’s romance with Larisa Kizilova was not taken seriously. Irma herself, after catching her husband with Larisa, easily believed that she just gives the director a massage. She had no idea that this woman could be her rival.

Andrei Tarkovsky is a great Russian film director. His films are included in all lists of masterpieces of world cinema. He was praised by Wim Wenders, Lars von Trier, and Akira Kurosawa. Every plot becomes for Tarkovsky an occasion for reflections on the nature of man, on the eternal categories of human consciousness - about memory and unconsciousness, about conscience, about the soul. His films are always a complex world of multidimensional and multi-valued symbols, the solution of which requires the viewer to exert maximum emotional and intellectual forces. According to the director himself, cinema was for him an occupation “moral”, he considered “it is necessary to keep the view of art as something extremely serious, responsible, not fitting and such concepts as, say, theme, genre, form, etc.” .Е️ His work had a huge impact on Soviet and world cinema, and for many became a source of inspiration. Famous Italian director Federico Fellini said: “If I had not seen Tarkovsky’s film Ivan’s Childhood, I would never have made Eight and a Half.” We have made for you our selection of films for the week: ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????.............

And yet Larissa became not only a fleeting companion of Tarkovsky, but also a full-fledged wife for 16 years - until the last days of Tarkovsky's life. She addressed the filmmaker to "you", frankly flattered him and cooked wonderfully. Even staying in a hotel, she managed to fry the wife of the cutlet and cook borsch.
What was he holding with that woman? He regularly fell in love and had affairs on the side. Larisa learned and arranged scandals, but it did not bring results. It is not surprising, considering some of the director’s statements.
“A woman does not have an inner world of her own and should not have one. Her inner world should completely dissolve in the inner world of a man, Tarkovsky once said in an interview.

There is no doubt that if there was not this famous Khrushchev thaw, one could hardly count on any career that would have taken place in my country. Of course, I was at a good time in terms of starting my job. Very successful. As for parties, the artist should not belong to any parties. That is the meaning of creativity that the artist expresses his personal, individual, I would say personal, point of view. Because creativity expresses most vividly, like no other phenomenon or phenomenon, what we call the meaning of the personality - its content, its content. I think Dostoevsky was right when he said that he did not belong to any direction. Art associated with any direction is in some sense flawed. Therefore, of course, technically I belong to the generation of the Twentieth Congress, and it is only natural that I aspired and aspired to always be myself. #Andrey_Tarkovsky #AndreyTarkovsky #Tarkovsky #Sixties

From the cinematology of A. Meneghetti based on the film by A. Tarkovsky “Solaris”, 1972 Almost always the great directors who shoot the most famous films touch the viewer not so much with their professional or artistic skills, but with their ability to control the imagination and program of the unconscious complex. Tarkovsky tells his dreams through his films. The Mirror presents the formation of the complex, in Solaris - its action and how it ends for an adult. This film presents a wonderful opportunity to realize the projections of our own unconscious: how images, actions, our choices arise. There is nothing sci-fi about Solaris: it is an inner drawing of the daily reality of each person’s individual life. Solaris can be seen as unconscious. Imagine this journey beyond reality, into the depths of each of us. Detailed cinemalogy on the film "Solaris" can be found in the book A. Meneghetti Ontopsychological Cinemalogy. #ontopsychological synemalogy#sinemalogy#cinelogia#ontopsychology#antonyomenegetti#film#ontokniga#Tarkovsky#Andreitarkovsky#solaris

Once, even a close friend of his wife became pregnant from the director. After learning the truth, Larissa did what no one would have done: she paid her friend for an abortion.
Over the years, Tarkovsky gave his wife control over all his affairs, completely becoming creative. In his personal diary, he once noted: “Without Larochka, I would have been long gone.” Sometimes he even had to live on his salary. Larisa herself noted that her mission is to save the genius from himself.
“Yes, I have a hard time. But I forgive him for everything, this is my cross. My life commitment to a great man. I have to save him so he can make films. For history, for eternity, said Tarkovsky.

The director died in 1986. However, even after his departure, Larissa could not find common ground with his entourage and even with the management of the foundation in his name. They believed that the woman unceremoniously appointed herself the muse of a genius, brazenly dissuaded him from friends and family. After 11 years, this struggle was not Larissa herself.

- Ivan's Childhood (1962)
Before the shooting of the picture, Andrei Arsenyevich wondered whether he could make a film about the war. In the center of the plot was a 12-year-old boy from whom the Nazis took his family. In dreams, the guy continues to live his former carefree life, and in reality he is forced to fight. In the end, the film was extremely successful. It was this film that brought the first Venetian Golden Lion to domestic cinema.

Let's make love not war. One of the most heartfelt kisses in the history of cinema in Andrei Tarkovsky’s piercing film Ivan’s Childhood. His film debut, which won the main prize of the Venice Festival. The story of war, destroyed childhood and murdered love. Happy Victory Day!

In general, Tarkovsky considered his best work Mirror (and not without reason). I appeal to those who have not watched, guys, start with Andrei Rublev. Do not look, for God's sake, this slag of the type of Sveta Sokolova and Arrhythmia. This is degradation in its pure form! #Andreitarkovsky #Tarkovsky #Andreyrublev #Soviet film #Anatolyissolonitsyn #Solonitsyn #mirror #Andreyrublefilm #movie

The film adaptation that caused the conflict between Andrei Tarkovsky and the author of the story Stanislav Lem. The writer wanted the story of extraterrestrial contact to be depicted with an emphasis on special effects. However, Tarkovsky himself decided to do everything in his favorite manner - heartfelt dialogue and a protracted plot. The success of the film proves that the director was right.

For the second time in a week (and probably 15 in a lifetime) I watched Solaris. I’ve heard that many people who have seen this movie before can’t. Too long shots, too long narrative, too slow-moving action. And for me, on the contrary, quarantine and lack of haste returned the charm of contemplating the once favorite films of favorite directors. Why don't we just sit down? The question of the collision with the future, with the unknown in space – as the author of the novel Lem and, accordingly, the author of the film who shares his view – is that it will be in any case unexpected, that is, so unexpected that you can not even prepare for it. The only thing that can be done is to try to look critically at the ways in which we cognize: by combating stereotypes of thought, those blocks of logical stereotypes that often replace us with minutes of reflection. Confronting something unknown will require strict moral discipline. That is why the hero’s father says that everything is very fragile there – referring rather to the inertia of human thinking, the way people behave in the face of this unknown: as long as the unknown. And not in order to preserve ourselves, although this also matters, but in order not to injure the unknown, to which human thought first touches. How fresh and relevant, isn't it?! #Tarkovsky #solaris #moekino #favorite movies

The dramatic film-confession was conceived in the early 70s, but then the director did not receive permission to shoot it. He wanted to talk about his childhood, about the moment when his father left the family. The picture was ruled and returned for revision many times, and then allowed to show only in 3 cinemas of the capital. The director had to show "The Mirror" secretly. View this post on Instagram

After reading the story “Picnic on the Roadside”, Tarkovsky invited the Strugatsky brothers to write a script for the film. Respecting the talented director, science fiction agreed. At that time, they did not know that the work would have to be rewritten about 15 times. Filming was heavy. Andrey Arsenyevich first scandalized with one operator, then with the second. All the material used in a couple of weeks was destroyed and started from scratch. The exhausted actors then swore that they would no longer work with Tarkovsky.
However, the effort paid off. And although the film was initially accepted ambiguously, but at the Cannes Film Festival the picture was immediately noted, and the director soon received the title of People's Artist.
