Best sleep I ever got on the couch.
Haha, as I keep saying... you picked the wrong one to start with. In fact I didn't mention it in my original post for that very reason.

On Tarkovsky, it's best to start with one of the three I mentioned. Zerkalo would be my personal favorite.

Just finished watching one of the movies on my "to-do list" - Stalingrad. Brutal, harsh and well - meaningless, which in an [anti-]war movie is exactly what I'm looking for. There are a few points when it feels a little contrived, a few points where where the acting is under- or over-done, but all in all - damn, the Germans still make the best war movies. It's also a relief to see a proper movie done on the Stalingrad theme after the total shit that was Enemy at the Gates (don't mind me, I hate that movie with a passion for its 'theme park' version of history).
The Birds are using humanity in order to throw something terrifying at this green pig. And then what happens to us all later, that’s simply not important to them…

I saw Spiderwick tonight, and that was pretty awesome. Birdeater guy totally stole every scene he was in. :up:
