> Tarkovsky dismissed color film as a "commercial gimmick" He claimed that in everyday life one does not consciously notice colors most of the time, and that color should therefore be used in film mainly to emphasize certain moments
kek imagine being this butthurt your country can't afford color film stock
>>He claimed that in everyday life one does not consciously notice colors most of the time
Such is life in East Europe.
Hunter Howard
Well it's good when a filmmaker uses color to emphasize a moment, can't we all agree on that?
Luis Perry
Black and white film is patrician though, so he is right
Parker Scott
Ofcourse, but Tarkovsky being all cranky and saying color is commercial makes him look delusional
Xavier Ross
That's hilarious. Thanks user.
Joshua Cruz
>kek imagine being this butthurt your country can't afford color film stock He only made 2 black and white films though Even one of his student films made in the 50s was in color
Jaxson Lee
he was right, people used to dream in black and white with occasional colour
Isaac Howard
thats what communism does
Isaiah Scott
Black and White is student film tier
Jacob Howard
He's pointing at us..
Brandon Baker
He was a soviet era eastern european, colour was basically illegal there. Black and white probably looked realer for them.
William Evans
several of his films have black and white segments, sometimes it was a directorial intent other times it was because color film wasn't available Wrong, people dreamed in black and white during the era of black and white films.
Blake Adams
He's checking my dubs
Noah King
based tark is never wrong.
Julian Brown
>other times it was because color film wasn't available Source?

Soviet Russia
Grayson Davis

Adam Scott

Asher Myers
>Implying tarkovsky wasn't forced by the soviets to say color us overrated to avoid getting Gulaged
Dominic Richardson

Zachary Gonzalez

Jonathan Rogers
reminder Tarkosvky was assassinated by the KGB
David Gutierrez
Yeah, but he thought of this after those movies, so..
Ian Miller
>Tarkovsky was a hack
who knew
Leo Perez
Yeah the KGB forced him to shoot near a chemical plant which led to his death 10 years later
Nathan Adams
>but not all the time, as this distracts the viewer. To him, films in color were like moving paintings or photographs, which are too beautiful to be a realistic depiction of life
Caleb Morris
I don't get Tarkovsky he really seemed to resent film but love paintings,poetry etc. so why didn't he just do that?
Ryder Butler
because kino
Nolan King
He is sort of right though, when you watch a black and white film you don't even notice the lack of color.
Ayden Young
he loved film he just hated blockbusters
Evan Hill
Yeah, maybe if you're filming in the 1940s. By the 60's and 70's color film was more than abundant in the entire world.
Carter Clark
film fags are retarded
we should already have 60fps for everything at the least but they're fags about it

Joshua Lewis

Daniel Richardson
>Didn’t you ever ask him questions? >I always asked him what kind of movies he was watching. I envied him for having seen Star Wars, for instance. I asked him how the film was and he would tell me the whole story, including every little detail. He basically allowed me to see the film in my imagination.
>So Andrey Tarkovsky loved Star Wars? >Of course! He then showed me Akira Kurosawa’s The Hidden Fortress, which is, as we all know, the blueprint of Star Wars.
