The original Solaris was great with subtitles or in Russian.. Stalker was -- wait for it -- wait for it -- slow to the point of going nowhere. Thus, you keep waiting for a point, a direction, a reason for the slow pace, an explanation of where the ending leaves us. Speaking Russian would not help this dying story. Haven't seen any of his other work, but feels like one for one so far.
