What's your go-to book that grows with you over time I'd love to know. Its depth, complexity, and the shifting lens I bring to each reading as I age make it an all-time favorite. By focusing on the physicality of the characters, Soderbergh creates a visceral view of the story that is more relatable and accessible. Yearly, I revisit Stanisaw Lem's Solaris, a testament to the power of literature. The film focuses on Chris and Rheya’s relationship, taking something into account that Lem’s and Tarkovsky’s more metaphysical approach didn’t emphasize: the bodies carrying the range of emotions in the story. Soderbergh keeps the complex psychology of Tarkovsky but trades the pacing for a modern and sensuous approach to editing, cinematography, and directing.
Despite being critically praised, it turned out to be one of the most overlooked films of his career. Winner of the Kafka Prize, he was a contributor to many magazines, including the New Yorker, and the author of numerous works, including Solaris. It stands very well on its own and is just as worthy of praise as the other. Stanislaw Lem (1921-2006) was the most widely translated and best known science fiction author writing outside of the English language. His version turned out way differently than Tarkovsky’s and also diverted considerably from the novel. An author of one of the books in Solarian studies maintains that all scientific achievements reveal the projection of anthropomorphic definitions on all reality. Right off from the Academy Award-winning duo of Traffic and Erin Brockovich, and the success of the Ocean’s franchise first installment, no one would have guessed that Soderbergh’s next project would be an adaptation of Solaris.
