did you not read what I wrote?
I clipped it for you below so you can reread it.
notice the word "versions"?
I fully understand the difference in what Lem meant by writing the book the
way he did, Tarkovsky took Solaris expanded on it in a direction that Lem
didn't agree with, that's why Lem raised such a stink about it. He couldn't
handle seeing his own work being twisted for a film. Regardless, both of
their versions are amazing in their own way.
