"I'm a big fan of Tarkovsky. I think he's an actual poet, which is very rare in the cinema, and the fact that he had such an impact with only seven features I think is a testament to his genius. I loved the (original Solaris). I didn't feel that his film could be improved upon. I wasn't trying to take what he did and build on it, I really just had a very different interpretation of the Lem book, which had a lot of ideas in it, I think, to generate a couple or more films."
- Director Steven Soderbergh discusses the original Solaris (1973) at Close-up Film.
