Lecture and discussion on Tarkovsky's endings

I have seen most of these films, and it doesn't get any better than Tarkovsky. As a warning, the discussion will, most likely, not be terribly Christian, but this is a unique opportunity to engage in some great film-watching and learning. If anyone goes, I want a report. :)
