From Andrew Tarkovky, hailed as the greatest Soviet director since Einstein, comes the epic, ANDREI RUBLEV, acclaimed as a masterpiece internationally and banned in the director's homeland. It is the dazzling and harrowing tale told with spectacle, beauty and nobility of the famed 15th Century icon painter who survives the cruelties of medieval Russia and creates works of art. This mesmerizing, spiritual odyssey gives an inkling of man's desires and needs that are crushed in times of bloody Tartar raids, religious cruelty and pagan rites, making a profound affirmation of the spirit in te face of awesome adversity. Director: Andrei Tarkovsky. Actors: Anatoly Solonitsyn, Ivan Lapikov, Nikolai Grinko . Black and White. Country: Russia. Subtitled. (I.A.S. now located in Old McMillan 254.)
