I will admit to being largely unfamiliar with the work of Andrei Tarkovsky.
I know he made the original Solaris, which I have seen bits and pieces of.  It is one of those films I find lovely, and intriguing, and yet impenetrable; I have not been able to sit all the way through it simply because I can't keep my mind from wandering.  But it is lovely and meditative, and I appreciate the director's eye for image.
Turns out that the guy was a pretty slick hand with still photos, too.  Anyone who can produce arresting images out of a cheesy Polaroid camera?  Hmmm.
I think I should go watch one of his flicks.  There seems to be something there.
