Viewing Notes

Wild flick! Would love to have a good HD release of this movie. Has some exquisite photography particularly with the use of the color and shot composition.

Jason notes:
This “Iron Curtain Sci-Fi” classic was written by the Brothers Strugatsky, authors of the books on which Andrei Tarkovsky’s Stalker and Aleksey German’s Hard to Be a God were based.
