>>24705217>You posted itWhy do you guys like it so much? I can't even tell what's going on in it
>>24702884I've spent a weird amount of time with: Wharton's The Custom Of The Country and Mann's The Magic Mountain, Stevens and Bishop, Measure For Measure and the Scottish play, Seneca, Haydn 88 & 97, Orblivion, Barry Lyndon, and anything by Monet where he evidently wasn't thinking all that hard about why to do it at all.
>>24705220I haven't seen it or read the book, although both are on my todo list. I watch very few movies (and like even less) so I only found Tarkovsky recently.Before that I probably would have said Aliens or some obscure Chechen Wad documentary that I watched as a teenager was my favorite movie lol.
