Currently watching Andrei Tarkovsky's Stalker and I'm not sure what intrigues me the most. I love the obsession with visual texture, I love the interesting dialogue, but maybe most of all I love how this movie is clearly one of those where it's shot silently and sound is added in post to save money but rather than just add in sound the movie experiments with its sound pallet in a way that is disorienting and creepy. I've still got almost two hours more to go but so far this movie is already entrancing me with basically every aspect that film has: visuals, sound, and performance.
