Through Tarr's meticulous vision, these ordinary hardships take on cosmic weight; this is tedium vividly rendered. Full Review

Rating: 4/5 -- The movie exerts an eerie grip, with echoes of Bresson, Bergman and Dreyer, but is utterly distinctive: a vision of a world going inexorably into a final darkness. Full Review

[Tarr is in] much closer alignment with his characters and their plight than he's arguably ever been before, making this his most direct and compassionate film.

While it's not among Tarr's greatest works, this self-proclaimed final film could not be a more fitting conclusion to a great career, in its strict adherence to both his formal and thematic tendencies. Full Review

Rating: 4/5 -- Maligned by some due to its crawling pace and monotonous repetition, there is still something inexplicably mesmerising and entrancing about Tarr's reputed last film. Full Review

Starkly beautiful....The filmmaker has such a distinct visual style, crafting images like exceptional portraiture, studying the interplay of light and shadows on creased faces and stark landscapes.

Rating: 3.5/4 -- "The Turin Horse" is a parable, which means it's both very simple and very weighty. It's not about event and emotion, but duration and endurance. Full Review

Product Description:

Hungarian auteur Béla Tarr (THE MAN FROM LONDON) writes and directs this drama that is inspired by an incident from the life of Friedrich Nietzsche. The 19th-century philosopher witnessed the mistreatment of a horse, and this film focuses on the coachman, his daughter, and the abused animal.
