Discuss: texture, sound, movement, meaning (ambiguity), atmosphere vs symbolic, Tarkovsky quote: ‘cinema is a mosaic with time’
- The river – moss, water, bubbles
- Rustling of leaves
- Bird chirps
- Rain
- Cars
- The initial music is somber and soft only played very few times, ending music is fearful and loud
- Natural sounds in nature
- Emphasizing sounds gives an eerie, alone feeling
- Silent without music
- Dialogue is crisp, clear and a bit stiff, “matter of fact”
- The textures move in different ways
- Water is up and down
- Moss is wavy
- Detailed
- Atmosphere vs. symbolic/Meaning
- Nature is pleasant, but when you build to replicate, charm and serenity goes away
- “I don’t like innovation”
- Process with our own reflections
- Full circle – first scene and end
- Lack of memories, limitation
- True consciousness?
- Discovery, reality and deception about both
- What is the true location? – ending
- Pieced together
- Layers
- Build upon each other
- Length – long, slow
- Focus
