Ivan Vasilyevich Changes His Profession

After dedicating my life to studying film, there are certain movies I like greatly that I feel I can break apart and understand decently well. Ones I can analyze and talk about in depth for hours. While doing this is very interesting to me, one loses the sense of magic watching movies should contain; a glimpse into some kind of unknowable truth that one can nevertheless feel. These deeply profound truths about life cease to be real if one attempts to speak about them. Only works of art can even come close to capturing a sense or feeling of these truths. Ivan Vasilievich Changes His Profession is pure magic, pure truth. There is nothing behind its illusion because there is no illusion here, to me. It is human emotion in its purest form, and because of that, it can only be truth. Ivan Vasilievich Changes His Profession is why I watch movies.
