Movies have the spirit of poetry.
On the ark where the director is God, he chose what he thinks Russia is proud of and can represent the spirit of Russia.
Beginning with darkness and ending with fog like sea fog.
The structure is complete and the tension is moderate. As a director, he has a strong ability to control the rhythm and temperament of the film.
My personal favorite part of the dance, it's really happy and beautiful. So the French ambassador who belonged to the past chose to stay, and the narrator, who represented Russia, chose to move on, facing the foggy front.
Sometimes I can't help but think, if the Chinese made the theme of Ark, what would they choose? Phoenix Nirvana? Anyway, almost every dynasty ended when the palace was burned...

    Through the film. After watching various museum documentaries made by Xiao Suo, this film is normal, but the great long-shot experiment of this film concealed its rich ideological symptoms: "Farewell, Europa, I will move on." Yes 18 Nostalgia of glory under the rule of Catherine II in the century, reflection on the socialist period and admiration of Russian culture/art that transcends time and space. It is indeed an important post-Cold War Soviet Russian film.

    The whole film is a long shot, which is really amazing. I don't know how to do it. The last scene is really a bunker. I also have a museum plot. Recalling the history of Russian art like poetry. The cameraman has worked hard. . .

Russian Ark quotes

  • Orbeli: Is something still troubling you? Is it the authorities? They want acorns without oak trees. They are not interested in knowing how to nurture the tree of culture, but it will be their doom if the tree falls. Then there will be nothing left. Can't they understand that?

  • The Time Traveller: Sir. Sir. A pity you're not here with me. You would understand everything. Look. The sea is all around. And we are destined to sail forever, to live forever.
