True, pace wise it's probably the best example I could think of. So it's like watching 2 and a half Tarkovsky films. Piece of piss What about The Turin Horse? Is that movie more deliberately paced than Satantango? I like the movie quite a bit, but I think it is slower paced than most of Tarkovsky's movies. The Turin Horse (actually my favorite Tarr film) is probably a little slower paced than Satantango. Satantango also isn't quite as sombre or austere. Tarr in general is bleaker than Tarkovsky.

Even then it doesn't seem like a movie I'd watch anytime soon. Do you want to see it? I've seen Satantango 3 times (twice in more or less ine sitting) and consider it one of my favorite films. It certainly isn't going to appeal to everyone and does require some investment on the viewers part. It is slow moving, but things do happen (probably similarly paced to Tarkovsky), and visually it's stunning, shot entirely in fluid long takes. Once you get into it's rhythms, it's quite hypnotic. Logistics is a completely different matter, honestly can't imagine anyone watching more than an hour or two of that. I am aware that Satantango has more going for it than Logistics. Even though I wouldn't watch either right now, I would take Satantango for at least having actors and a plot to keep you engaged.
