9/10
Wow, this one knocked my socks off. It's always fun to see a movie that feels like it comes from another planet. This 1964 film from Sergei Paradjanov about a Ukranian Hutsul named Ivan is an absolute revelation. The camera work, incredible colors and costume, and unbelievable soundtrack are what puts this film over the top. The plot is linear enough (Ivan falls in love with the daughter of his father's murderer, she dies, his subsequent life is detailed) but the movie as a whole is so much more and I could never do it justice with a description so just go see it if you can.
