Tarkovsky’s Tales Part 8: The Sacrifice (1986) with Steven Warren Hill

Aw, the Tarkovsky’s Tales retrospective has come to an end. Unfortunately, Andrei Tarkovsky did not live much past the release of his final film, 1986’s The Sacrifice. He died from cancer as a result of the conditions of the area they film Stalker in. This film eerily enough showcases that he knew his time was up, be it the narrative of the film, the bookending of The Sacrifice with Ivan’s Childhood, or the constant handshakes he has with his previous film’s both visually and thematically. Steven Warren Hill is in tow for this one of course. I’m grateful to have had his time, knowledge and companionship on this journey through a filmmaker both of us love. And if you were a fan of this retrospective, Steven and I have another one already in the works for the near future. We appreciate your listens and watches. Is there anything you learned through this? A favorite Tarkovsky film? Did you watch along or discover a film through this?
