“Solaris” (1972) dir. Andrey Tarkovskiy

November 15, 2010

Solaris is well worth your time. I haven’t seen the remake, so there’ll be no comparisons here but the original is such an exceptional film I haven’t yet risked watching the Hollywood version.

Set aboard an orbiting space station above the planet Solaris, psychologist Kris Kelvin is sent to investigate the crews hallucinations and destructive behaviour. Quickly however he begins to experience a remarkably self-aware hallucination when he wakes up to find his dead wife in his quarters, now seemingly very much alive.

With only a small cast (which includes the planet Solaris itself, a bubbling, churning ever present entity), and set on a small space station, it is a beautifully shot and exceptionally well paced film.

If you’re a Netflix subscriber, it’s available now on Instant Watch. Make some time for it.

If we don’t, remember me

November 13, 2010

The gifs at If we don’t, remember me are wonderfully subtle.

The gif format, despite increasing competition from video, has been flourishing and this is an excellent extension. It is a perfect example of why the format exists, a distillation of one moment on video and the person behind If we don’t, remember me isolates and extends that moment beautifully.

Jim Henson – “Time Piece”

November 11, 2010

Not only is this fantastic short film made by Jim Henson, but he also stars. I think it may be the first time I’ve ever seen the man behind the movies and television shows.
