Solaris Planet

If there is such a planet where you can see your loved ones who have passed away again, would you be willing to go to this planet? From what I've said, you'd think this would be a Hollywood-style emotional story, but if you really think so, you'd be underestimating this work. The plot I am telling is the movie "Flying to Space" (this translation is really too ordinary) based on the classic science fiction masterpiece "Solaris" in the history of literature. Whenever I talk about the classics in the history of science fiction Movie fans will rarely mention this, but this work by Tarkovsky in 1972 has a place in the sci-fi world, no less than Kushenshi's ground-breaking "2001 A Space Odyssey", this movie The most touching thing is that Tarkovsky used the words of a thinker in the film to express his concerns: "All we need is the truth, and we try to explore it, but we can never find it... human beings. Only humans are needed."

    8/10. The old pagoda uses poetic power to insight into the earth and soul. The beginning of the chapter is from the lake beside the house to the legs of the characters in the thick fog and bushes/to the face, and the beautiful scenery of floating river mussels, brown horses running, and birds singing immediately switches to Close-up of ears, as if listening to life; monotonous and narrow Japanese highways and dark tunnels, when the male protagonist feels the love of his dead wife/family at the alienated space station, he kneels down in front of the door in the sun and rain to purify the shame of his homeland.

    I don't know why I can't remember your face. The tower-style fear comes directly from the depths of the heart, and it keeps coming back to find it with an immortal body. Blurring dream and reality, past and future, Tarkovsky jumps freely between black and white and color. Flying into space is a psychological healing process under extreme conditions, the core of which is reconciliation to the homeland and conversion of the family. Our present identity existence is attached to our memory, and when the authenticity of memory is blurred, our present existence is also shaken. In the end, it felt too long, especially the last paragraph, which was dragged for explanation, but the Japanese on-board footage really caught my heart.

Solaris quotes

  • Anri Berton, pilot: He's an accountant, not a scientist. You were right.

    Nik Kelvin, otets Krisa Kelvina: You and I are friends, but that doesn't mean you can say that about him.

    Anri Berton, pilot: Great. You and I have known each other for 20 years. It had to end someday.

  • Nik Kelvin, otets Krisa Kelvina: What did you have to offend him for? You're too harsh. It's dangerous to send people like you into space. Everything there is too fragile. Yes, fragile! The Earth has somehow become adjusted to people like you, although at what sacrifice!
