A little less analogue, and a lot more crap.

Certainly nothing wrong with the remake, but the original production (with a nod to Mr Artemiev) shows how the great masters did it before the money brought in the stars for the 'bums on seats' quotient of success.

Absolutely. An impressive film visually, I saw it when it was first released. Also the atmospheric music used, both electronic and Bach's Choral Prelude, was perfect throughout.

Thanks for reminding me with that. The new film 'Arrival' apparently has some echoes of that director's masterpiece .

Thanks @Channel Hopper for remind me of Tarkovsky.Who has seen his movies there is no way to forget them.All force you to think about the human condition in relation to his faith,when God died for man alienated from the new technology.A frantic search of a faith lost and an attempt to touch the mystery that lies at the heart of this man who no longer has doubts but only mundane certainties.
Besides "Solaris" worth seeing the masterpieces Andrei Rublev si Stalker,true poems cinematographic.
