Spring, Summer, Fall, Winter... and Spring

The impression this movie leaves is profound: Here is an artist who sees things whole.

This is as close to a Zen experience as the movies offer.

A balm for the soul and a reminder that even in the frenetic city, the cosmos has its own steady pendulum.

The picture's extraordinary beauty is inescapable.

As with most collections of short stories, some are more interesting than others. And the pacing is extremely slow -- almost meditative.

With its heart-stopping setting, gorgeous images and a lovely little story, it's as fresh as woodland dew.

Precious few movies are so agog with wonder at the absolute majesty of nature.

As the Buddhists might say, you have to experience it firsthand; reading about it is not enough

Somber, serene and stirring.

Hay momentos de sobrecogedora belleza (...) cuando logramos meternos dentro de un relato cargado de poesía como éste.

Spring, Summer, Fall, Winter...and Spring provides an oasis from contemporary rhythms.
