An old movie my Dad talked about. (Horse, horse)
My Dad and his friend used to talk about a movie they once saw. I have an impression that it's an old movie (Perhaps black and white). They're both born in '61 so I guess the movie is from the late 60...

Some may wonder why anyone would sit through nearly 3 hours of slow zooms, pans and leaves blowing, and barely a plot - but that is Tarr's philosophical nature.

In a bleak, wind-swept landscape, a father (Jnos Derzsi) and his daughter (Erika Bk) live alone in a house, along with a horse who pulls the father's cart.

This spells almost certain doom for the sanity of our main man, as is to be expected in movies like this after movies like Jeanne Dielman came out (I suppose now I have two primary slow cinema movies to compare when watching other slow cinema pieces).
