DVD Synopsis

Nostalghia is Russian director Andrei Tarkovsky's enigmatic work about a writer (Oleg Yankovsky) who, trapped by his fame and an unhappy marriage, seeks out his cultural past in Italy. Here he meets Erland Josephson, a local pariah who declares that the world is coming to an end. The writer finds this prophecy curiously more alluring than the possibility of a dead-end future. Nostalghia won the Grand Prix de Creation and the International Critics Prize at the 1984 Cannes Film Festival. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

Editorial Review of DVD

Andrei Tarkovsky's Nostalghia comes to DVD with a widescreen transfer that preserves the original theatrical aspect ratio of 1.66:1. The Italian soundtrack is rendered in Dolby Digital Stereo. English subtitles are accessible. Supplemental materials include filmographies, a list of awards, and a trailer. Although the disc has an expensive list price and few extras, the quality of the film may be enough to entice anyone with an interest in world cinema. ~ Perry Seibert, All Movie Guide
