I haven’t watched it yet, but Solaris is widely regarded as a great movie.

It is one of my absolute favorite films. It is an extremely slow burn and very long, but thoroughly enjoyable. It touches on a lot of realy important themes and does so thoughtfully. I highly suggest everyone watch it if they have the chance.

One of the absolute best films ever made, and indeed in my top 3 I've ever seen, is also a Soviet film produced in 1985 by Mosfilm (who produced Solaris), called Come and See.

it's on my ever-growing movie backburner and I'll possibly watch it this month. I'm not much of a movie guy but everything I've seen from the USSR and even the DDR so far has at least been an interesting experience. The same can't be said for much from AMPTP studios.
