"Dialogues With Solzhenitsyn"
1999
Directed by Alexander Sokurov
In
this evocative two-part documentary on Alexander Solzhenitsyn, director
Alexander Sokurov interprets the Nobel Prize-winning novelist's life based
on two lengthy talks with Solzhenitsyn and his wife. Also known as Uzel,
Dialogues is not a straightforward biography, but instead focuses
on the writer's monologues and his discussions with Sokurov about Russian
literature, folklore, history, and language. The result is a portrait of a
persecuted Russian legend through his own words. Russian with English
subtitles.
180 minutes.
