1. Why did Harley commit suicide twice?
2. Why did Gibarian commit suicide?
3. What prompted Chris to see Harley as a "wife" rather than a ghost?
4. The connection between Solaris's academic dilemma and Chris' mental dilemma?
5. How on earth did Tarkovsky bring the dilemma of Solaris—a mockery of anthropocentrism—to shame, love, and conscience?
Solaris itself contains too many themes, but I still can't figure out in what sense these themes coexist or conflict, and which themes are answered at the end.

Ah! I still want to black psychoanalysis! Damn, I also know that Harley's self-recognition process is very lacan! I also know that the ocean is like a real world with absolute otherness! From the perspective of "gazing" alone, I can pull out what lascivious superego adds, what Hegel's rebellion, a lot, and nothing! But you stop and don't go, can we still talk about life?
Heart hurts.
