  • On this quarantine day, we're watching the classic 1972 film Solaris, directed by Russian visionary director Andrei Tarkovsky. Tarkovsky said he wanted to make this movie in response to Kubrick's 2001: A Space Odyssey, whose "emotional foundation" he said was a "lifeless schema with only pretensions to truth."
    Solaris's influence can be seen in so many sci-fi movies, from Alien to Interstellar, Event Horizon to Annihilation. It's a mind-bending, soul-rending film about space, the limits of human understanding, and learning to let go.

    “She’s not real dude” But she is real! That’s the scariest aspect of this film for me. The planet puts them in an impossible situation, to deny their deepest needs and desires. There’s no winning.

    A perfect representation of Tarkovsky's power, you started bubbly and quirky, but at one point you connected, and it got you, it got you really deep. That's what happens with his films, when you connect, you start to travel in his dreamy and profound worlds.

    In the first few scenes, there are two shots of reeds flowing in water. That second shot, with deep water underneath the flowing tendrils has fascinated me for years. A foreshadowing of things to come. Deep water has always terrified me. I can swim, but not knowing what's down below makes my heart pound. The later scenes of the Solaris Ocean heighten that feeling of dread and the unknown. In the end, Kris is like those reeds in the beginning, only now, he is a reed, forever trapped in the Solaris Ocean currents.

      Thank you for your perspective! I've always resonated with water imagery, and of course the film is suffuse with it: rivers, oceans, rain, and snow. There's something to that hypnotic quality, where you wonder if it's relinquishing control or resignation to fall in.

    Solyaris and Zerkalo. These are my favorite Tarkovsky movies.

    It's not a "bdsm pants", it's just "pressure pants" for high-altitude flights - really used by military pilots in the 1960s.

      That's very informative, thanks!

      Mm.
      Things like these can be seen in many 1960s space movies and TV shows like 'The Twilight Zone' and 'The Outer Limits'.
      USAF high-altitude partial-pressure garments used as spacesuits.
      The leather pilot's jacket is an affectation which simply says 'this man likes to dress as if he is a pilot'.
      If he flew to the station in Solaris', then he can bring one along, he's an astronaut.
      If you look up 1960s NASA spacesuits, such as used in the Mercury, Gemini and Apollo programs, similar garments are the innermost layer of most real spacesuits.

    Also, you mention the element of doppelgangers really freaks you out? Well, the little girl in the very beginning looks almost exactly like me when I was that age. But not only that, the background with the bridge looks just like where I lived at that same age!! Minus all the trees.

    @Vadim Mikhailov, your comment got auto-deleted for including a link unfortunately. However, I wanted to let you know that I have a Shepitko video already recorded! No promises as to when it will come out, but it is in the queue.

    Kubrick doesn't come near Tarkovsky, he just knew all the right people. 💐
