Something often *is* happening but you either see it or you don't. Or something previously happened and the stillness is giving you time to contemplate what just happened. Of all Tarkovsky's films, Stalker was the one where I felt like I wasn't seeing it, or there was a joke I wasn't getting. But it's also the one I have only seen once.

My wife liked Stalker for some reason yet fell asleep twice trying to watch Solaris. Both times it was during the freeway scene near the beginning.

...how that freeway scene looked back in 1972 in USSR! You have to say "Western decadent" 100 times to realize how unusual it was for us.
