Dead Man's Letters (1986) // Konstantin Lopushanskiy

I've waited a decade to find a decent copy of this film. I watched it at last an it was a worthy wait!

Dead Man's Letter is a striking film. It's pitch black. Nothing good ever happens in the story. Yet, humanity is maintained, even in hellish situations. I've sensed a Strugatsky trace in the narrative and surely enough, I've read that Boris Strugatsky was one of the writers.

The lack of colours is a powerful narrative tool. Intricate set design feels too real. It's even discomforting in a sense.

It's a hard film to watch but rewarding in it's own unique way.

And the best of all, it's free to watch in Youtube in HD!

If you'd like to remember what cinema was, go find this marvel.

Pathfinders to Venus (ABC, 1961)

"What a paradise this place is. The way Earth must have been before man spoiled it with sprawling towns and filthy machines."

"If it hadn't been for man's filthy machines we wouldn't be here."

"That's true. And the pity of it is that after us will come rocket after rocket to ravage this planet. They'll gouge the minerals out of the earth, destroy the forests and eventually they'll go to war over it."
