If you are too emotional, watching this movie will feel like you have fallen into the deepest dream. The unmodified childhood and the anticipation of late night will form a thick fog to surround you. Although it is a science fiction film, the main theme of this film is to explore the relationship between time, eternity, life and human beings. Whether it is reborn again and again, or it can stay in that moment forever as a transformation, is eternity a test for the individual, or a desperate cry of collective hysteria? In the face of the deepest questions and the most painful emotions, silence is better than shouting, calmness is better than struggle and torture.
"Solaris" uses color to distinguish between memory and reality. In the memory, the images are swallowed up by time and fresh colors are left, leaving only black and white stories that are arrogant. The indigo blue with heavy makeup is like the last lucidity before night. When the light is swallowed up, the stars appear from the darkness, and the trance is yesterday's reappearance. But in reality, it is always surrounded by thick fog, the past is locked, the present is difficult to distinguish, the future is unclear, time seems to be swallowed up and silent, since there is no time, does that mean that this moment is eternal; this moment does not exist, Eternity doesn't exist either, only the cycle of day and night, the annihilation of stars and the universe is real.
The film tells that on Solaris, a group of scientists cut off contact with the earth. The earth gradually lost interest in this planet that was full of doubts and seemed to have no research value, and decided to send a psychologist to investigate. After psychologists arrived at Solaris, they discovered that the ocean of this planet has a mind like the human brain, and can materialize the deepest obsessions in human hearts. Some people have seen giants, and some people have seen relatives. , psychologists saw his wife who had been dead for ten years. In getting along with his wife, the past seems to reappear, and people return to the past in the future, is it a kind of punishment?
For life, the director's perspective is full of poetic sorrow. The camera has been entangled in the water plants in the rapids, the snow forest in the paintings, and the bright windows in the space station. It is a static close-up, but it all contains a perpetual melody: the water plants chase Streams, snow forest hunting, bright windows day and night, etc. It's a little unexpected to suddenly see a movie without BGM. People talk about the conflict between exploration and morality, the boundary between science and emotion, and the silence is like an eternal universe. The unknown planet Solaris is about to be abandoned by humans because of its uselessness and the need to explore, and those who walk into it understand that there is nothing but death that makes you want to be separated from this planet. It is your mirror, and it reflects you.
Did the ocean of Solaris have this talent, materializing the obsessions in people's hearts; or did the arrival of humans stimulate the desire to communicate with Solaris and learn new life forms in this way? Movies have no answers, and cold science teaches us how our bodies are made and dies, but not the antidote to the poison of emotions. The woman who turned into the ex-wife of a psychologist finally took the same path as that woman on earth. She felt love and understood love, but committed suicide in the pain of losing her love and never getting it back. Solaris is not a planet that human beings need to explore. It is a mirror that reflects human ugliness, selfishness, confusion and despair.
As a sci-fi film, you will be surprised to find that the coolness and obscurity of this film are one. It calmly reviewed the past, and gave people the hope of drinking poison to quench their thirst. Explore a new planet with a need for fresh and exciting, but what people miss most is their hometown. When a psychologist finally establishes a family and a home identical to Earth's on Solaris, has he accepted that the past is eternal? Or become God's arrogance, making him willing to become a slave of eternal life. In any case, how many people can refuse the temptation to step into the past, present, and future with one leg at the same time.
The woman the psychologist fell in love with, was his dead wife on earth, the first woman who materialized in the sea but was brutally killed by him, or the second woman who reconnected with him emotionally. Either way, he endowed it with guilt. Humans are such strange creatures, it seems difficult to continue getting along if you don't hurt them first. God punishes all things with cold winter, and gives happiness with spring and summer, and enjoys it again and again. This kind of self-tortured pleasure is really flexible for human beings to master. This kind of knowledge system established by human beings ultimately limits the infinite expansion of knowledge. Humans who want to explore are lost in their inner world. This is a discipline that has developed to a very high level and has to be connected with philosophy. Bar.
