In this week’s episode we take a look at Andrei Tarkovsky’s 1972 space arthouse film, Solaris. We break down everything from the plot to the history of this hero of cinema. Along the way we explore the differences between Solaris and Kubrick’s own space opera, and compare the similarities between Tarkovsky’s adaption versus Steven Soderbergh’s own 2002 remake of Stanisław Lem’s pinnacle novel.
