Who do you consider is Bela Tarr’s cinematic successor?

Submitted by Educational_Ad_3757 t3_z7q8jg in movies

In my opinion it’s started with Carl Theodor Dreyer with films like the passion of Joan of Arc. It then moved to Ingmar Bergman with films like Seventh Seal, wild strawberries. after that it moved to Andrei tarkovsky with only six but remarkable movies, Stalker, solaris, Andrei Rublev, Mirror, Ivan’s Childhood, Nostalghia, and finally the Sacrafice. After Tarkovsky died Bela Tarr rose from the ashes and haves films like Damnation, satantango, Turin Horse. He’s not dead but has retired from filmmaking. I was just wondering you guys consider to be the cinematic successor or heir of Bela Tarr?

In terms of the long take, Lav Diaz.

The closest is Diaz but unfortunately his films have stagnated and aren't anywhere near as good as Tarr's. László Nemes is also pretty close to Tarr even if it's only on a superficial level, Sunset was largely underappreciated.

It would’ve been Hu Bo, sadly. He was actually Tarr’s student.

I don't think Dreyer, Bergman, Tarkovsky, and Tarr have all that much in common aside from being European.

I see Tarr as the anti-Tarkovsky. Tarr is nihilistic, engulfed by the darkness. Tarkovsky was full of hope and light in the darkness.
