The innocence that has been baptized by hardship and desire is the worthy innocence

This movie is very rich in terms of plot and images. I only talk to you about a few fragments of my thinking while watching the movie.

1

There is a desire to express, looks stubborn, but when calmed down, a kind and clear temperament emerges on the face; gimmicks, crazy, ironic, to use suffering, to use life, to please the joy and laughter of the approval of the surrounding spectators, Even poor imitators are attracted because of their outstanding performance-who do you think all this is talking about? Isn't this a portrayal of the artist's face?

Of course, it is also the wandering artist in the first chapter of the movie. Farmers watch vagrants juggling in the straw shed, but today the audience buys tickets to watch the performance of the performing artists on the stage. In terms of the nature of watching, there is no difference.

In the first chapter of the movie, when the omnipotence of art meets the constraints of reality, it is vulnerable to the tools of violence in reality, and even the piano is smashed by the police. Art is sometimes not only useless for living, but even harmful.

Each chapter of this movie talks about how to look at the artist from a different perspective. Each chapter is a collision of ideas between real artists and various "fake artists".

Kirill said contemptuously: "God made priests, and the devil created wandering artists."-This proves that Kirill neither understands God, nor can he understand art.

Feofan Glek: People with prejudices cannot become artists.

The great painter Glek, who appeared from the second chapter, represents a typical image among artists. He believes that the suffering of the Russians in that era was due to ignorance and stupidity. He no longer had hope for the people at the time. The questioning of human nature meant that he also questioned religion; and he himself was for the church. He was born to paint religious murals, which led him to hate painting day after day. On the surface, boredom itself is a normal response to work, but boredom actually has its deep spiritual reasons. Glek's crude judgments of the world, Russians, beliefs, etc. are also caused by mental fatigue and hatred-I often see people like this around me.

Tarkovsky borrowed from Rublev and said directly that he "doesn't understand how Glek can become a painter and maintain this view." Rublev also said: “If you only see the evil side, then there will never be happiness in front of God.” I don’t think Rublev’s point of view is the truth, but in this film, Rublev is indeed. A simple and innocent person. These are very important qualities for how he will successfully shape his religious image in the future.

Kirill: He is portrayed as the most typical negative role.

Kirill is the kind of person who has always yearned for creation but has the fundamental wrong motivation. In the eyes of outsiders, they will mistake him for the same kind of people as the real creator. For those who are so-called "no talent and mediocre", the problem is not mediocrity itself, but Kirill who has worked in the wrong direction from the beginning. To give a very simple example, a person just hopes to be a good husband and wife, but he does not really love the other half of the marriage. Then this kind of hard work of a good husband and a good wife will only lead to grievances. Husband and wife.

envy.

The director also expressed through the two roles of Kirill and Rublev’s best brother and friend Daniel: a good artist will be strongly jealous of those around him, but this is also part of his path. For good artists, these embarrassing emotional injuries caused by jealousy falling behind can also be put aside and must be put aside for their own art. A person, not just an artist, must follow his own path firmly.

5

Fuma.

Fuma, Rublev's young assistant. The sad thing about this character is that it is not that a person can be enlightened when he is with the master every day. Fouma's understanding of Rublev may not be as good as that of a stranger.

And why are cleverness and lying are harmful to art.

6

Shake the machine up. Tarkovsky is a master at using the upswing position. He shows how people are being devastated by the soul by shaking up the camera. His upswing position is like the climax of music.

7

The Russian version of Good Friday. His mother Maria and the believers were distraught, and Maria Magdalene hugged Jesus' legs. However, as Jesus walked towards the cross, a ignorant little girl looked at him and smiled. Jesus' steps slowed down as he passed the little girl. "Those who killed him loved him."-This passage of Jesus' crucifixion was filmed for the appearance of a little girl.

8

Xuan. After all, it was restricted by all aspects. I was somewhat restrained in shooting the part where Rublev witnessed the villagers holding naked sacrifices by the river, and was not relaxed and deep enough.

9

Horse. Horses are the way of heaven, horses are a natural will, horses can also be angels, they were there when Jesus was crucified, horses can be part of God, horses are horses.

10

Bell. This is my favorite chapter of the whole movie. As the title of the whole film, the protagonist on the surface is the boy of Tsukuchong instead of Rublev. Yes, the reason why an artist is able to become this artist, his being shaped, formed, and finally born, the most important thing is not the moment he started painting and writing, but before that, at what moment did he become an artist? Why was it touched. The boy of Zhuzhong didn't get the true biography of his father, but the Grand Duke spent a lot of money on him (or in the case of Zhuzhong).

Rublev is old at this time, but the movie has once again pinned this kind of innocence in the boy of Tsukuchong. When a person has completed a difficult task, he can't be wronged, he can't release this kind of grievance without crying, even if the task doesn't have to be worthy of fate.

Andrei Rublev quotes

  • Kirill: [admiring one of Feofan's icon paintings] As Epiphanius said in "The Life of Saint Sergeius," "Simplicity, without gaudiness." That is what this is. It's sacred... Simplicity, without gaudiness - you can't say it better.

    Feofan Grek: I see you are a wise man.

    Kirill: If so, is that a good thing? If one is ignorant, isn't it better to be guided by one's heart?

    Feofan Grek: In much wisdom there is much grief. And he who increases knowledge increases sorrow.

  • Andrey Rublev: I see the world with your eyes. I listen to it with your ears. With your heart...
