The Turin Horse

[Tom Beshear]

It's in my Netflix queue. "Satantango" and "Wierkmeister(sp?) Harmonies" are 
monuments. (I hope Tarr is wrong about it being his last film, although he 
has pushed his aesthetic so far, I'm not sure there's anywhere left to go. I 
suppose he doesn't want to repeat himself.)
