I just picked this one up, can't wait to watch it. Speaking of Tarkovsky, I also recently got Solaris, i'm looking forward to that one as well, hopefully this weekend!

Solaris is great too.

I just saw Stalker for the first time this month. I didn't quite get it after the first viewing so I watched it again a week later and that's when it really resonated with me. I think that's how it is with every Tarkovsky film I've seen.

that seems to be the case with Tarkovsky movies, multiple viewings are needed, but IMO that is the sign of a truely great movie!

seems like Solaris was Tarkovsky's answer to the #1 movie on your list - Kubricks 2001, although this has been argued over the years
