Andrei Tarkovsky's shots are fantastic. There are a number of such directors in the Soviet Union, such as Guede and Gregory Alexandrov, who are all of a very high standard.
But from a storytelling perspective, Andrei Tarkovsky is weaker.
The film was Andrei Tarkovsky's first completed film, shot at the age of 28 and won the Golden Lion among others.
Hence the public attention.
This story has a certain anti-war implication than the "Mirror" and "Flying to Space" filmed behind it. Through the story of the boy Ivan, the story of the Red Army scouts during World War II is reproduced.
The 12-year-old boy lost his mother and sister because of the war. Since then, he has nothing to worry about in the world. He devoted himself to the fight against the Nazis without hesitation until he was finally killed.
Among them, Masha in the birch forest, the scene of carrying oranges in the rain, and the scene of the captain and the lieutenant escorting Ivan to the German front line are all very delicate, and the unique scenery is presented by the expressive director.
The story has also become a film remembered by the times because of its anti-war and the national strength of the Soviet Union at that time.
