'Béla Tarr Urges Students to Be Free, Stop Complaining:
Students to Be Free, Stop Complaining:
Tarr, in
town to collect his lifetime achievement award and lead a workshop for young filmmakers, stopped
I knew
that if I manage to make this movie, I won’t be able to say

know these guys who had some success 30 years ago and they keep using the same
But something

and despised – for his unique style, Tarr also discussed it during a masterclass
“My takes

when I say I am ‘teaching,’ it’s not education
“The biggest
problem with education is when a teacher tells you the ‘right’ way to do things
