Built as a final test to film school, the steamroller and the violin ( Andrei Tarkovsky - 1960) is a small masterpiece, which deserves to be seen and that goes beyond simple interest of the cinephile. It tells of the friendship between a child who is studying the violin and a Jupiter worker employed in the operations of a steamroller in a city \u200b\u200bstreet. Despite its simplicity, the script in the hands of Tarkovsky becomes the beautiful portrait of unlikely friendship between two very distant from each other, not only by age. The Russian director, then twenty-eight, already showed his great visionary talent, almost always based on the effects of natural light and creating images that are clear and bright. Paradoxically, the later works are always much darker and not oozing the same light that occurs in this short film. You see, and it is inevitable that a work is not mature, but this only helps to make it more enjoyable. Music is essential, of course, based on strings. A small prize for anyone who has sipped Nostalgia.
