Stalker
"Once, the future was only a continuation of the present. All its changes loomed somewhere beyond the horizon. But now the future's a part of the present"
I can't believe it took me so long to watch this masterpiece.
Stalker is an intense film, with a complex story and a slow pace, which is vital to its unique, depressing, and solitary essence.
Its subtle camera movements give the film a very special dynamism. The cinematography is perfect. Every image is truly breathtaking. The acting is amazing, and the characters are perfectly written, considering how little we know about them and their history.
Stalker is a thoughtful and poetic film about life and its meaning. It's a journey through characters who seem to have no past, much less a future. It speaks of how power can offer hope, and at the same time, be the end of everything.
Stalker is a painful film, within its beauty and poetry. Unforgettable for anyone who sees it.
A masterpiece.
