索拉里斯

也许看过这部电影的人，对克里斯与妻子蕾雅的初遇中电梯间里朗诵的那首诗有印象，它在电影中再次出现是蕾雅自杀身亡那一刻攥在手中的一页诗集……上网寻找了许久，总算找到了这首出自Dylan Thomas的杰作：And death shall have no dominion.Dead men naked they shall be oneWith the man in the wind and the west moon;When their bones are picked clean and the clean bones gone,They shall have stars at elbow and foot;Though they go mad they shall be sane,Though they sink through the sea they shall rise again;Though lovers be lost love shall not;And death shall have no dominion. And death shall have no dominion.Under the windings of the seaThey lying long shall not die windily;Twisting on racks when sinews give way,Strapped to a wheel, yet they shall not break;Faith in their hands shall snap in two, And the unicorn evils run them through;Split all ends up they shan't crack;And death shall have no dominion.And death shall have no dominion.No more may gulls cry at their earsOr waves break loud on the seashores;Where blew a flower may a flower no moreLift its head to the blows of the rain;Though they be mad and dead as nails,Heads of the characters hammer through daisies;Break in the sun till the sun breaks down,And death shall have no dominion.没有看过电影原著，因而对其与原著之间纠缠不清的关系不予评论，升华了原著也好，糟蹋了原著也好。

我只想说，史蒂文·索德伯格拍出了这首诗的灵魂。

“Though lovers be lost love shall not”恋人失散，即便阴阳相隔，爱却依然永存，这甚至令死亡都无可奈何，于是，死亡无法再主宰一切，即便癫狂，却仍能再次清醒，即便沉沦深海，却能再次升腾。

当净骨成灰散尽，却在其手肘足底化出璀璨星辰……相爱的人，灵魂将永远以彼此为羁绊，不分离，即便，即便再次相遇的地方，是在那遥远光年外的solaris……

　　這是根據電影史上最佳科幻片之一的《星球疏拉里斯》（Solaris）重拍的荷里活版本。

影片改編自波蘭科幻小說作家斯坦尼斯洛．蘭姆（Stanislaw Lem）的同名科幻小說。

而早在1972年，蘇聯導演安德烈．塔可夫斯基（Andrei Tarkovsky）就已經把它搬上了銀幕。

小說本身充滿了對人類生命的思考，而電影版本更是充滿了人類的內省和對靈魂的詰問。

蘇聯版本也已經使人感到詩意盎然，其中有個場景，男女主角因失重而漂浮飛舞在空中，堪稱電影史上經典的一幕。

史提芬．蘇德堡是當今荷里活新一代的優秀導演之一，他非常了解電影和觀眾的關係，明白什麼是觀眾能注意到的，什麼是觀眾容易忽視的，什麼是必須要做的，什麼是可有可無的錦上添花，因此他善於發揮電影的優勢而拍出很好看的電影。

起初他對拍攝這部科幻影片並不太感興趣，因為他從來沒有拍攝過類似的題材，而且他對表現未來的科幻也興趣索然。

可是當他回憶起曾經看過的小說與電影時，他答應了霍士公司的邀請。

而美國Lightstorm Entertainment公司則花了五年的時間與俄羅斯方面交涉，解決版權等問題。

史提芬．蘇德堡在一次採訪中提到，對於未來世界的視覺想象力，他自認不足，所以在本片中沒有對未來世界的全景展示。

本片中的大部分鏡頭都是中鏡和近鏡，極少的幾個全景鏡頭都是關於太空、空間站、飛船和「索拉羅斯」星球的。

另外在拍攝中並未強烈突出未來的高科技產品，這樣雖然缺乏電影常有的特技和視覺衝擊，但影片則完全集中在人物關係上和故事的發掘上。

《星球索拉羅斯》是一部有自己獨特風格的科幻電影。

因為科幻電影並不光是預言未來會怎樣，而營造出一些現實世界中沒有的情境來考驗人性的真偽也是其目標之一。

再有設計的壓抑的內部空間站、與情節密切相關的變幻莫測的光線，這都使得「索拉羅斯」號空間站既真實感人，又如夢似幻。

我觉得，索德伯格的改编版本与塔可夫斯基在本质上没什么区别，只是将它通俗化了，他们共同想要表达的是：人类到底存不存在，是不是尘世一切只不过是更高级生命体的臆想。

这种思考方式比[黑客帝国]更虚无。

索拉力星到底是个什么情况？

有什么寓意么？

索拉力星创造的人到底和真实的地球人有什么区别？

飞船飞向索拉力星，最后的结局说明了什么？

克里斯进入到另一个时空？

看完了感觉一脑子浆糊啊

2002年的重制版《索拉力》，如果我们以所谓“纯科幻”的角度来看待它，那么，较之于小说和72年版定然是逊色不少的。

这部电影对原版小说的改编太多，尤其是把主张消灭“客人”的白人物理学家莫名的改成黑人。

片中也没有深入地探讨人类与索拉里斯星之间的“对立”关系，和试图相互理解的努力。

然而，我们把它看作是爱情片，那么这部影片还是值得观赏的。

当然了，这样一来，我个人认为，其实没有必要煞费力气搬出科幻经典之作作为舞台设置来摆布。

抛开羞涩难懂的背景设定不谈，故事的主旋律是很简单的。

一名男人因种种原因和深爱的女人闹矛盾离开了她，最后的结局是女人寻短辞世。

几年之后，这位男人心中依然存着负罪感，因偶然的机会来到了观测神秘星球的太空站，“奇迹般”地重逢了她。

我不知道科学的发展在精神层面是否给人类带来了福音。

如果这则故事发生在古代，随之而来的很可能是幸福的结局。

然而，依照现代的科学知识，几乎每个人都懂得，曾经爱过的故人复生时，不带有人间天上的隔阂是不可能的。

在太空站里男主角重逢的“她”，不是几年前逝世的她。

虽然“她”的模样，神情，还有她脑中的记忆，和她基本是一致的，但是“她”不会死。

即便男主角把“她”放逐到外太空，只要他醒睡一次，就出现在他的身旁；即便“她”服下液态氧，也会复苏。

作为知识分子，他当然知道“她”不是她。

可悲的是，他仍然无法狠下心来把“她”看作是索拉里斯星试验人类的道具。

他的内心深处，似乎是一直希望着和她重头再来的。

据某位心理学家所说，当人遇到一些无法挽回的事件，总是希望在相似的情形之下挽回曾经犯下的错误。

按照人类的伦理道德尺度，索拉里斯星可能是无耻下流且残酷阴险的。

但是，男主角，终于遇到了绝佳的机会，来挽回当年所犯下的错误。

在他眼前的“她”和她，就差了那么一点点，其实也可以说她俩是同一位人物。

“她”不是机器人，用肉眼来看，和人类几无区别。

她早已死去，她早已失去了继续生存变化的可能性。

那么，根据男主角的记忆复原的“她”又何尝不是“真实”的她呢？

错过了这一次，以后他还会有机会解脱自己吗？

可是他想挽回的，究竟是她呢，还是他自己呢？

影片到最后，我们可以知道，男主角并没有回到地球，因为他手指头的伤口很快就愈合了，他又遇到她了。

我们只是不知道，这部影片是索拉里斯星在解读男主角的心路历程，还是按照时间顺序，在影片结尾处男主角被索拉里斯星所吞没。

不过这些细节，可能没有男主角所感受到的那份救赎感重要吧。

这电影看的那叫一个郁闷。

找工作找的反胃，躲在出租屋里看pp。

刚开始看星际迷航，正沉迷于星舰的撞击，就充满期待的点来Solaris。

主角手破那会儿我正以为要来场，地球超人大战外星怪物呢。。。

谁想一直到我看完影片，也就个3D红球球在那转啊转的，看的那叫一个郁闷啊！

主角开始难道就不是个“人”，就后那个穿着宇航服要回地球时的回忆，一下子把我给打击翻了，最后的结局更是让我想到了一个人，哦？

也许不对，或许这玩意儿叫神——God。

主角是“人”的时候送走那个女人，是不是在讲理智的面对感性呢？

选择留下来到底是选择了什么？

做为一种脆弱的生命体的仿制体，拥有着同样脆弱的精神领域，这是不是一种进化不完整的体现？

完整的进化体现是否应该是那个球球呢？

没有感觉，没有语言，却拥有完整的，或者说是种强大的存在？

混乱的想法就像那个有胡子的小伙子，杀死自己人类的形态，或者说是杀死自己原型的生命体，是得到了完整的自己，还是失去了自己完整？

这电影根本就没有去太空，完全就是对不完美或者说是对难以琢磨的神经系统的哲学思考。

试着摆脱物质生命体的存在，思考精神独立存在的可能，如同那些玄幻网络小说中的游戏。

当思想离开本体独立存在于某种介质当中，没有死亡的威胁一切都可以再次组合，这到底是永生还是灭亡？

神话里盘古开天辟地从球里诞生，他是不是在追寻从思想到生命体的进化？

这个想法有点傻，神话应该是先祖们对自我存在的思考，应该是思想的存在。。。

没有谁能解释一下生命和思想原点，进化论依旧还在进化之中，也许还会任然进化下去。

谋杀、贪婪、欲望、控制、文明……延续的生命延续着这一切，直到某一天的到来。

是科学计算的太阳毁灭地球，还是科学计算的陨石毁灭地球，或者是人类毁灭地球……似乎我们总会被毁灭，在一切被毁灭之前，明天我还要去找工作，然后……到底要干嘛？

一部科幻片被索德伯格拍出纪录片的效果。

当心理学家返回地球时，他并不觉得地球更不陌生。

其实他已经不在地球，也不在太空，而是身处索拉里斯。

索拉里斯，这个神秘的事物、神秘的地方，一方面他毫不客气的凸显在你的面前，你清楚它的所在，可同时，你对他一无所知。

就像复活的爱人，他就在你面前，你对他那样熟悉，可那并不是他。

索拉里斯是一个不解的谜，不是难解，而是在它的面前，我们都失去了解谜的欲望。

最迷人的魅力不在你的微笑，而在微笑的背后，那乖异的感觉，那服从的感觉，像接过男童伸出的颤抖的手，让电流通过全身。

索拉里斯，具有无穷的魅力。

很吸引我的是前后切手的细节，死亡仅是一个转折一个契机，血是爱情是拯救是希望是存在，启示就出现在那一刻，然而又被迅速遗忘。

因为之前看过塔可夫斯基的版本，所以总是下意识的拿两个版本比较，其实两个片子没有可比性，因为这部电影已经完全被索德伯格化了，完整的体现着索德伯格的个性和美学观，它情节完整，逻辑严谨，简洁生动，不同于老塔的开放性多义性版本，它们是两个导演的两种思路，是两个题材相近的不同电影。

The Solaris StationAfter the premiere of this remake of the Tarkovski movie I read a number of critical reviews, which appeared in American press. The divergence of opinions and interpretations was enormous. The Americans in a somewhat childish manner "grade" films just like children's papers in school. Hence there were critics who gave Soderbergh's Solaris an "A", the majority agreed on a "B" and some gave it a "C".Some reviewers, like the one from the "New York Times", claim the film was a "love story" - a romance set in outer space. I have not seen the film and I am not familiar with the script, hence I cannot say anything about the movie itself except for what the reviews reflect, albeit unclearly - like a distorted picture of one's face in ripply water. However, to my best knowledge, the book was not dedicated to erotic problems of people in outer space... I cannot say anything reasonable about its creation - the book somehow "poured out of me" without any previous planning and I even had difficulties with the ending. However since I wrote it over forty years ago, from today's perspective I perceive it in a much more objective and rational way. I am also capable of finding analogies to other works, located in high regions of the world literature. Melville's "Moby Dick" could serve as an example; on the surface the book describes the history of a whaling ship and Capitan Ahab's pernicious quest for the white whale. Initially the critics destroyed the novel as meaningless and unsuccessful - after all why care about some whale the captain most likely would have converted into a number of cutlets and barrels full of animal fat? Only after great analytical efforts the critics discovered that the message of "Moby Dick" was neither animal fat nor even harpoons. Since much deeper, symbolic layers were found, in libraries Melville's work was removed from the "Adventures at Sea" section and placed elsewhere. Had Solaris dealt with love of a man for a woman - no matter whether on Earth on in Space - it would not have been entitled Solaris! Istvan Csicsery-Ronay, an Americanized Hungarian specializing in literary studies called his analysis "The Book is the Alien". Indeed, in Solaris I attempted to present the problem of an encounter in Space with a form of being that is neither human nor humanoid. Science fiction almost always assumed the aliens we meet play some kind of game with us the rules of which we sooner or later may understand (in most cases the "game" was the strategy of warfare). However I wanted to cut all threads leading to the personification of the Creature, i.e. the Solarian Ocean, so that the contact could not follow the human, interpersonal pattern - although it did take place in some strange manner. The method I used in the novel to demonstrate this was the particular outcome of the interest of people, who for over one hundred years have been studying the planet Solaris and the ocean covering its surface. One should not speak of a "thinking" or a "non-thinking" Ocean, however the Ocean certainly was active, undertook some voluntary actions and was capable of doing things which were entirely alien to the human domain. Eventually, when it got the attention of little ants that struggled above its surface, it did so in a radical way. It penetrated the superficial established manners, conventions and methods of linguistic communication, and entered, in its own way, into minds of the people of the Solaris Station and revealed what was deeply hidden in each of them: a reprehensible guilt, a tragic event from the past suppressed by the memory, a secret and shameful desire. In some cases the reader remains unaware of what has been revealed; what we know is that in each case it was capable of incarnation and physical creation of a being the hidden secret was connected to. Ocean's actions lead one of the scientists to an emotional distress that ended in a suicide, others isolated themselves. When Kris Kelvin initially arrived at the Station he was unable to understand what was going on: all were hiding and in the corridor he encountered one of the phantoms - a giant Black woman in a reed skirt with whom the suicide Gibarian presumably had been conflicted. Kelvin's recklessness and imprudent behavior in the past had not prevented the suicide of his beloved woman Harey. He buried her on Earth and in a sense he buried her in his mind as well - until the Ocean made her come back at the Solaris Station. The Ocean appears quite stubborn in his ways: the creatures, a kind of remorse of the Station's scientists, cannot be gotten rid of - even those sent into space come back... Kelvin initially tried to kill Harey; later he accepted her presence and tried to play the role he had to abandon on Earth - of her beloved man. The vision of the Planet Solaris was very important for me. Why was it important? The Solarian globe was not just any sphere surrounded by some jelly - it was an active being (although a non-human one). It neither built nor created anything translatable into our language that could have been "explained in translation". Hence a description had to be replaced by analysis - (obviously an impossible task) - of the internal workings of the Ocean's ego. This gave rise to symetriads, asymetriads and mimoids - strange semi-constructions scientists were unable to understand; they could only describe them in a mathematically meticulous manner, and this was the sole purpose of the growing Solarian library - the result of over a hundred years' efforts to enclose in folios what was not human and beyond human comprehension; what could not have been translated into human language - or into anything else. One of the reviewers admitted he would prefer to see Tarkovski's Solaris one more time. Others speculated that while the producer won't make a lot of money and there will be no crowd at the box office, the film belongs to the genre of a more ambitious science fiction - since no one got murdered and neither star wars, nor space-werewolfs nor Schwarzenegger's Terminators were present. In the US an atmosphere filled with very concrete expectations usually accompanies the release of every new film. I found it interesting that although my book is quite old - almost half a century means a lot in present times - someone wanted to take the risk despite the fact that the plot did not meet the abovementioned expectations. (Along the way he might have gotten scared a bit, but the latter is a pure speculation on my part.) The book ends in a romantic?tragic way; the girl herself wished to be annihilated, not wanting to be an instrument with the help of which the one she truly loves is being studied by some unknown power. Her annihilation takes place unbeknownst to Kelvin - with the help of one of Space Stations' residents. The Soderbergh movie supposedly has a different, more optimistic finale. If this were the case this would signify a concession to the stereotypes of American thinking regarding science fiction. It seems that these deep, concrete ruts of thinking cannot be avoided: either there is a happy ending or a space catastrophe. This may have been the reason for the touch of disappointment in some of the critics' reviews - they expected the girl created by the ocean to turn into a fury, a witch or a sorceress who would devour the main character, while worms and other filth would crawl out of her intestines. Solaris was submitted to the next year's Berlin film festival and in Poland the film will be shown only after the festival is over. Polish distributors obtained a copy of the movie, however I am not that eager to see it. The information that Soderbergh started filming my novel (although no one knew what the film would be like) crated an increase in publishers' interest from different countries. In Germany Bertelsmann took over Solaris, while the Danes, Norwegians, Koreans and an Arabic publishing house (from Syria) - also expressed interest in that title. Publishers also enquire about my other works. However all of this is only a side effect and has nothing to do with the novel itself. Summing up, as Solaris' author I shall allow myself to repeat that I only wanted to create a vision of a human encounter with something that certainly exists, in a mighty manner perhaps, but cannot be reduced to human concepts, ideas or images. This is why the book was entitled Solaris and not Love in Outer Space.Stanislaw Lem, December 8th, 2002

茫茫宇宙中流动的电波与Chris睡觉时脑波活动是呼应的。

事实上，他们都是电波，还没有人能够证明这两者没有关联。

很多人曾说过：21世纪，人们上天入地，但是对于支配这种高难度行为的人脑，却仍然知之甚少。

记忆是什么，意识是怎么产生的，和这个客观世界有什么联系？

很多人觉得主导中心思想的一段话是关于Dylan Thomas 关于死亡的那首诗。

但我觉得，影片想讲的，大过”死亡“。

宇航员，心理学博士。

他们以他们的经历，知识，认知，一同讲述着这个超乎寻常的故事。

虽然故事并未包含太多的科学理论和奇幻情节，但是这个故事包含着一个最宏大，最基础，最深远的科幻观：存在。

当Dr. Gordan极力主张毁灭“来访者”时 ，Chris发表的这段话值得好好体会："你的来访者是谁？

是什么？

它有感情么，能够触碰么？

会说话么？

你怎么能断定，它不是生命？

你不能就此封锁它，扼杀它，单单因为它超出你的理解范围！

"从Gordan与Chris的第一次座谈时就能体会到，Gordan尚存理性，能客观地分析自己的精神状况，对行为作出审慎的分析。

从Snow断断续续的描述来看，Gordan也是反对回地球的主要原因，这其中包含着一定的责任情节（如果把这些"visitor"带回去会否引发灭族威胁？

），也包含着科学家的傲气情节（一定能够用战胜这个科学难题和处理好这些visitors). 虽然她也对失控充满着恐惧，她对于自己所理解的那个“科学”还是充满信仰的。

Chris却不同，情感，这一他所擅长处理的东西却很快侵袭了他，支配者他，让他产生畏惧，或者说，让他无所畏惧。

Gordan和Snow somehow已经切断了自己的情感线，因此他们再没有visitor到访，而Chris的妻子确是去了又来，死了又活，还同时出现几个，如记忆中一样脆弱，迷离，因为那是永远存在在他心中的爱。

有一个细节很多人都注意到了：片头，Chris切开手指时，那道伤口是个旧伤，甚至留不出血来。

他的那些病人所讲述状态：对世事无感，行尸走肉，其实就是他的写照，用他自己的独白来说：用尽全力仿造地球人，凹出生活的造性，这，不是存在。

但是片尾，当飞船撞向Solaris时，Chris再度看到自己切开了手指，献血如注，他抬头，看到了妻子，对他说：生死已不再重要，我们在一起了。

或许，飞船撞向的那个星球，并不是Solaris, 而是我们自己的心。

Gibarian在他的遗言录像中曾经说道: We don't want a new world, we want mirrors.

他所看到的，是他所回忆的吗？

仅仅是他回忆的吗？

为何有些又在他回忆之外，超出他的控制？

我们都做过梦，梦中的，只是“日有所想，夜有所梦”吗？

他所爱的，是什么？

是他的妻子？

是他记忆中的妻子？

还是，只是他自己？

你所爱的呢？

你是的那个TA？

是TA的离去而在你世界中的投影？

还是，你根本就是爱你自己？

他为什么爱这个长像相他妻子的她？

是爱屋及乌？

是自欺欺人？

还是爱情转移，或者寻找替代品？

他明知这个此她非彼她，他为什么还不离不弃？

我们所欢呼那个诗情画意般Though lovers be lost，love shall not是很美这是善意的谎言吗？

假如在你死之后他持续的思念和爱并非对你而是对他所想象的“双胎胞”妹妹不知道，我们所奋力呕歌的是否就是如此爱情？

然而，爱情又是如何？

主体为谁？

受体为谁？

为谁而作？

你的爱情呢？

你爱谁？

你身边的TA是我记忆的投影吗？

你的父母？

你的前朋友？

或者，你在同时拥有众多的TA？

在满足你的要求？

我们所爱的，到底是谁？
