I truly enjoyed this movie. While I found Stalker just a tad too slow for my taste, Solaris’s pauses and downtimes actually gave me moments to think and absorb its themes to fully digest them while viewing.

While the film was not without its flaws (it was a bit slow, still) I thought it was really an incredible artistic work. This being my second Tarkovsky film, I’m finding myself quite enamored with his work.

Can’t wait to watch the Soderberg version for an intensely different movie. :)
