Andrei Tarkovsky's sci-fi stunner Solaris is 50. IllusiveKen considers the legacy of the uncanny, staggeringly influential film:
That we take pristine places and then forcibly shape them in our own image is probably the cruelest human tendency. We force the places we go to reflect ourselves, and it’s not a great arrangement for either party.
All of this exposition is unspooled slowly as Kelvin is briefed on the project through the eyes of one of the men haunted by his failure on the planet, Burton . While flying over the ocean’s surface in search of other cosmonauts who went missing, Burton describes impossible visions of landscapes and creatures that don’t exist, yet the footage he returns with corroborates none of what he has to say. Though initially reticent, Kelvin decides to take the assignment.
The planet, Snaut patiently explains, creates these facsimiles of human memories, but their molecular biology is such that they can’t exist outside the planet’s immediate sphere of influence. Kelvin grapples with how real his wife his, with his memories of her and her lack of memory of the sore spots of their relationship, with what her presence means.
