Andrei Tarkovsky and Lev Shestov
This morning I discovered the following book online: Andreï Tarkovski, l’art et la pensée, by Luca Governatori, who is a film director himself. Using the “Click to Look Inside!” feature at amazon.fr, or “Cliquez pour Feuilleter!” as it says in … Continue reading
Films of faith, hope and love: Tarkovsky and the Silver Age religious philosophers
I have it in mind to write a long essay, or perhaps a short book, with the above title, or something close to it. I haven’t definitely decided on the structure or plan, but the idea of using the three … Continue reading
Le Fanu’s review of Bird’s book on Tarkovsky
One of the journal articles I retrieved at the library yesterday is a review of Robert Bird’s book Andrei Tarkovsky: Elements of Cinema. The review is by Mark Le Fanu and it’s in the current issue of Cinema Journal (vol. … Continue reading

How Andrei Rublev, the film, came to be
[In this post I rely heavily on the book by Robert Bird that I mentioned at the end of my last post, as well as on another excellent book by Bird, titled Andrei Tarkovsky : Elements of Cinema.] Given that … Continue reading
Andrei Tarkovsky – three monks sheltering under an oak tree in the rain
I mentioned Andrei Arsenyevich Tarkovsky (1932-1986) a couple of posts ago, as one of at least three directors who could fairly be described as “creative theologians,” at least to the extent that film as an art form permits such a … Continue reading
–Do I have to watch this film? –Yes, it’s good for you.
[... continued from the last post ...] In The Modern Theologians one of the chapters I looked at first is titled “Theology and Film,” because that’s a topic that really interests me (old habits die hard). Author Jolyon Mitchell has … Continue reading
