FILM: Russian Ark
I finally got around to seeing this last night - all I can say is wow....
it's sort of a condensed version of 300 years of Russian History shot at the Hermitage in St. Petersburg. It's also one continuous shot the whole way thru... but visually, it's incredible... RB

Re: FILM: Russian Ark
this movie was really slow, boring, and dull IMO. Hard to follow and appreciate. I only watched an hour and gave up.

This is an incredible piece of film history imo.

Re: FILM: Russian Ark
even if it was multiple shots, I'd think it was a great reenactment of certain historical Russian periods...
summary....it's a one shot movie - all 100 minutes, but it goes thru the winter palace in St. Petersburg recreating historical things that happened there so you get a 300 year history of Russia thru the people and the events... the WWII one really caught me off guard.. RB
