8/10
After Solaris, Stalker and now Ivan's Childhood, I'm learning that film rarely looks so beautiful as when it's in the hands of Andrei Tarkovsky. Ivan's Childhood, like the other two, contains some absolutely stunning cinematography...all the more impressive because it's Tarkovsky's first feature and it's shot in black and white. The film feels more restrained than the others and not quite as far-reaching in scope but it's still very satisfying and an ultimately very sad look at a boy's life pre- and post-war.
