Hahaha! 😛 I actually googled your quote and became fascinated by the Wiki article about the movie, especially this part

n an interview on the MK2 DVD, the production designer, Rashit Safiullin, recalls that Tarkovsky spent a year shooting a version of the outdoor scenes of Stalker. However, when the crew got back to Moscow, they found that all of the film had been improperly developed and their footage was unusable. The film had been shot on experimental Kodak stock with which Soviet laboratories were unfamiliar.

Even before the film stock problem was discovered, relations between Tarkovsky and Stalker's first cinematographer, Georgy Rerberg, had deteriorated. After seeing the poorly developed material, Rerberg left the first screening session and never came back. By the time the film stock defect was discovered, Tarkovsky had shot all the outdoor scenes and had to burn them. Safiullin contends that Tarkovsky was so despondent that he wanted to abandon further production of the film.



A haunted movie...I'm intrigued.

*puts Stalker on to do list*

"rainbow cloud above mt. everest in the himalayas - the phenomenon is said to be caused by light reflecting off tiny ice crystals inside the body of the cloud's water vapor. "







Mount Everest fascinates me. People climbing up while passing dead bodies strewn all over the place...I was watching a Youtube of some climbers finding a legendary climber whose body has been frozen up there for 80 years or so. They all gathered around his body to pay their respects before continuing the climb. Pretty hardcore and not for pussies, for sure.
