Happy Birthday, Alexander Sokurov! May your day be as captivating and delightfully surreal as the unforgettable scenes you've brought to life. Winning Venice's Golden Lion for "Faust" in 2011 was no small feat—clearly even Mephistopheles himself couldn't resist applauding!Your films have always challenged our minds (and occasionally confused them), but that's precisely why we adore you. Here's hoping this birthday brings fewer existential crises than a typical Sokurov masterpiece—but just enough drama to keep things interesting.
Cheers to another year of cinematic brilliance; may it bring more awards—and perhaps slightly less Faustian temptation!
