FILM:
The Dream of a Ridiculous Man (1992)
Сон смешного человека
Director: Aleksandr Petrov
The Dream of a Ridiculous Man was Aleksandr Petrov's third film as director, after Marathon and Korova. It's the work of an animator who's well-and-truly become comfortable with his craft; nobody with doubts about his own talents would ever attempt something as ambitious as a Dostoevsky story. A lonely man, having decided that nothing in his life matters to him anymore, rejects a young girl's pleads for help before returning to his apartment to contemplate suicide... Unforgettable dream-like images – the flicker of passing lights through a train window, a dazzling Utopian land beneath the blazing sun, the gleam of flaming dancers – retain their strength even after the film itself has come to an end.
