Real art house type of film that I'm sure many have not heard of let alone seen.
I saw it on YouTube a few years back where someone scored it with contemporary music. Incredible combination of visuals with that score.
Sofiko Chiaureli is gorgeous. The director got banished by the Soviet authorities who hated any art that wasn't for the masses and this isn't popular culture stuff but his work shows genius use of color, space, texture. Framing of shots is intentionally skewed at times, unique costumes, perspectives.
Not for ADD types but memorizing visuals.
The Color of Pomegranates (1969)
The Color of Pomegranates is a 1969 Soviet art film written and directed by Sergei Parajanov. It is a poetic treatment of the life of the 18th-century Armenian singer Sayat-Nova. It has appeared in some scholarly polls of the greatest films ever made.
I 'think' this is the version I saw with contemporary scoring. >>

This cut of the film is shorter than the original and from the description it gets taken down quickly.
