Solaris Full Highway Scene

新宿から入って、谷町、飯倉の方へ抜けてってるのかな?

yes japanese person, that's japan. i'm sure whatever you said, it was pertinent.

This is Shuto expressway belt line of Tokyo.

By this movie, he goes to Iikura,Tanimachi, from Shinjuku.(1971)

This way is always congested now.

a movie is not a book and never can be and thank god for that for movies and for books

You know, I wouldn't mind Tarkovsky's self-indulgent elitism half so much if he hadn't MISSED THE ENTIRE POINT OF THE NOVEL.

The same story with Stalker. Tarkovsky was the great artist and he could create what he wanted. His movies touch something deep inside and change you once and forever.

So what if certain images in Tarkovskys film werent in the Stanislaw Lem book? Stanley Kubricks A Clockwork Orange was a great movie because he chose to leave out the final, sappy, impotent last chapter of Burgess original book. If writers dont work with directors on a constructive level, they shouldnt complain about adaptations. The only complaint that I have is that there isnt a decent English language version of Solaris.

You've missed the entire point of the movie.

i guess that the change from b/w to the colour means that Berton thinks about the past (Solaris) and then again about the presence (Earth) and so on

Indeed, however; disregarding profit is a failure society.
