Poster ex machina2

Director Alex Garland on his sources of inspiration: 'Andrei Tarkovsky”s Stalker is f—king incredible - just utterly hypnotizing and beautiful filmmaking. When you say great sci-fi, that”s where my head goes. I don”t know if you would even call Stalker sci-fi. I don”t even know what it is, but that”s where my brain went.'
