I just watch Tarkovsky’s Nostalgia on my day off work (I’m sick) and I’ll be honest I didn’t understand a lick of it. Poetic, beautiful, this made me feel something but I don’t necessarily understand what it was trying to say or what it meant.
But is there a concrete meaning to art in general? I suggest that we try and leave behind our urge to over analyze films, something adopted from English classes in middle school, and rather adopt a feeling based approach. Rather than look to someone else to tell you what something means on the ol youtube or reddit, let yourself sit in that not knowing. How does it make you feel????
