Not exactly sure how it fitted into the movie, but it was nice to see a nod towards a Tarkovsky movie (which at the time had never even been released in Australia, as far as I am aware.)

and that was (for us lesser mortals)?

It was the story that Anya told Danny through the door.

Haha, agreed David. Not many people would have picked that up.

Surely the original Solaris (1972) (i.e. not the remake) must have been out in Australia by then, though? In some form, even if (perhaps) it never played in theatres.

The book Solaris {1961} is by Stanislaw Lem, One of the great minds of the twentieth century ,Both the films are not the story Lem wrote,{Tarsoky lost the plot with his own agenda]Steven Soderberg may he burn in the hottest part of hell, {if that bible stuff was real !}

Anya I believe was talking about the book,
I have read this book five times and think it is a truly great book,
The book helped me with the Death of Mother when I was twelve
