The Films of Andrei Tarkovsky throws new light on one of the greatest -- and most misunderstood -- filmmakers of the past three decades. Johnson and Petrie provide accounts of all Tarkovsky's films, interpreting them within a biographical and historical framework. Part One examines Tarkovsky's life, working methods, aesthetic theories, and place within the spectrum of Soviet cinema. Part Two offers critical analyses of Tarkovsky's seven feature films and provides a detailed synopsis of each film. The final section surveys main stylistic devices, recurring image patterns, and themes that constitute Tarkovsky's "poetic world." The text in enhanced by more than sixty frame enlargements from the films.
