In order to bring "Solaris" to the big screen, Andrey Arsenyevich Tarkovsky and Lyme collaborated. With the assistance of Frederick Glenstein, Andrey Arsenyevich Tarkovsky completed the first draft of the script in the summer of 1969, of which three-thirds The second story focuses on the marriage of Chris and Halle on the earth. Lyme and the Moscow Film Studio Committee did not like this setting. In order to make the filming go, the final script had to compromise and seldom explain the world. Story, and Chris’ second marriage was also deleted. In the process of change, although Lyme participated in the adaptation of the script, he still did not know how Andrey Arsenyevich Tarkovsky would deal with the novel. Andrey Arsenyevich Tarkovsky hopes that the story of the film can be based on the novel, but it must be artistically eclectic, and Lyme strongly opposes the script. There are content that contradicts the novel, and I hope the film can copy the novel

Dr. Snaut: When man is happy, the meaning of life and other eternal themes rarely interest him. These questions should be asked at the end of one's life.
Kris Kelvin: But we don't know when life will end. That's why we're in such a hurry.
Dr. Snaut: Don't rush. The happiest people are those who are not interested in these cursed questions.

Kris Kelvin: To ask is always the desire to know. Yet the preservation of simple human truths requires mystery. The mysteries of happiness, death, and love. To think about it is to know one's day of death.
Dr. Snaut: Maybe you're right, but try not to think about all that now.
Kris Kelvin: Not knowing that day makes us practically immortal.
