take a test and you will see whether this movie is excellent or not
|
I would urge you to take a test, on the basis which you could tell yourself whether this movie is excellent or not: did watching it change anything in your life? have you really started thinking about your life and the life of the others differently, and maybe acting differently?
After all, the authentic purpose of cinema as an art is to create "a hieroglyphic of the absolute truth" and to act "on the soul, shaping its spiritual structure"(as Andrey Tarkovsky beautifully put it). You may enjoy reading some other thoughts on cinema and spiritual life in the amazing book "Sculpting in Time: Tarkovsky The Great Russian Filmaker Discusses His Art"
