oh don't worry this pic is just to keep in my mind what i am writing - too complicated to bore anyone with just now. i forgot to disable the comments. But you of course i am always glad to see. :) as for Valentina Malyavina, her blindness due to a bizarre coral (?!?!?) accident is a tragedy and important to what i am writing, a sort of alter-history time thing very loosely based upon her.
Natalya Bondarchuk - i know her career quite well, a beautiful and talented woman as actress and director. (But she she does not feature in my story)
Especially when the mirror is the surface of the water. :)wytchcroftDecember 15 2011, 10:06:42 UTC
YES! :))) my alter-'Tarkovsky' character says in the story; "Time is simply the steps across the lake, not the lake itself. The lake is unknowable perhaps; at least I often think so. We sleepwalk across the surface, not much more than that really, and I need to give such a thing expression, can you understand?" and then later there are many more lake and mirror moments...

rather tangential, but reminds me of the film image from "Being There" [based on Jerzy Kosinski's eponymous book] of Peter Sellers as Chauncy Gardener {Chance, the gardener} walking on a body of water . . .
Hari in Tarkovsky's "Solaris" was played by Natalya Bondarchuk. Cannot understand what film is on the picture, really.

//Fate whispered to him so the whole car could hear:
And why should you care about blindness and war?
It’s good, she was saying, you’re sightless and poor.
If you were not blind, you’d never survive. //
Arseny Tarkovsky 1943
