Tchykovsky? films

[Rose]

Hello everyone,

I recently interviewed an artist who cited Tchykovsky films as an inspiration for her paintings, she likes the way he captures "atmosphere." I plan to ask the artist a few follow-up questions tomorrow, and was hoping to discuss the films a bit more. The only thing is, I can't find anything about this guy on the Internet...probably because I'm spelling the name wrong!!

Do you have any idea who she might be talking about? Any film names?

Thanks, Joe, now THAT'S an answer! Based on this response, it seems to me Mr. Tarkovsky is best billed as a Writer/Director. Do you agree?
