"Andrei Rublev" is the second full-length film of the most famous director of the former Soviet Union, Andrei Tarkovsky. It records the great genius icon painter An The life experience and mental journey of Andrei Lublev. This film is one of the most incomprehensible films besides Tarkovsky. It is full of a lot of metaphorical scenes. I think the difficulty is the difference between religious culture and historical background. After watching it many times, I came to the following opinions about the film.

The film is far from being a historical story, or a biographical film, as its title suggests. "Andrei Rublev" was created over a long time span. It consists of 9 separate but interconnected parts: "Prologue", "The Wandering Entertainer", "Fiowangelek", "Andrei's Passion", "Festival", "Doomsday", "Doomsday" Invasion, Silence, and The Bell. These short dramas with different plots and themes streak together a critical period in Andrei Rublev's life.

The theme of the world outlook and religious outlook presented in Andrei Rublev is: universal spirit and self-redemption. The film not only shows the turbulent era in which Andrei Lublev lived and his religious journey to achieve self-salvation and spiritual salvation, but also expresses the director's artistic pursuit, world outlook, and religious outlook - "showing people how the artist is creating The state of mind and social emotion when the ideological wealth of eternal significance is produced, as well as the humanistic feelings with a universal spirit.”

I don't know if it's Andrei Lublev or Andrei Tarkovsky. I was deeply influenced. They are my life pursuit. I hope that one day I can also use an art form to infect more people. .

    Blind to the actor's face, it was not until the third and fourth paragraphs that he could figure out who Andre was; the religious background in the Middle Ages was also quite difficult to enter... But it is quite unusual for a literary director to occasionally shoot a siege battle or a big scene There are many times when the two-line scheduling of close-up and long-range shots, the paint in the pocket of the dead man is scattered along the stream of water and other delicate shots.

    Black and white film that has not been repaired for 200 minutes is also fatal (flickering and darkening several times), yellow and violent, and a lot of animal cruelty scenes, even if it is not a satire of the great party and the great Comrade Stalin, it is R-rated today. The film was shot back then to beg for a ban. The actor is so beautiful, the little boy's metaphor for Jesus' meme is a little contrived, and the overhead shot is worn out. The movie itself is not so awesome, please don't hold it.

Andrei Rublev quotes

  • Andrei Rublyov: You just spoke of Jesus. Perhaps he was born and crucified to reconcile God and man. Jesus came from God, so he is all-powerful. And if He died on the cross it was predetermined and His crucifixion and death were God's will. That would have aroused hatred not in those that crucified him but in those that loved him if they had been near him at that moment, because they loved him as a man only. But if He, of His own will, left them, He displayed injustice, or even cruelty. Maybe those who crucified him loved him because they helped in this divine plan.

  • Kirill: [admiring one of Feofan's icon paintings] As Epiphanius said in "The Life of Saint Sergeius," "Simplicity, without gaudiness." That is what this is. It's sacred... Simplicity, without gaudiness - you can't say it better.

    Feofan Grek: I see you are a wise man.

    Kirill: If so, is that a good thing? If one is ignorant, isn't it better to be guided by one's heart?

    Feofan Grek: In much wisdom there is much grief. And he who increases knowledge increases sorrow.
