Different opinion...

170.22.76.10

First, two caveats:
1) I've never seen Tartovsky's version;
2) I've only read the book in English, which I believe was translated from Polish, which was translated from an abridged Russian version (maybe the abridged version was in Polish or English - not sure).

Anyway, when I read the book, it seemed to be something almost impossible to express in a film, especially the science and philosophy.

When I saw Soderburgh's film, despite the changes to the story, I thought it expressed well the element of the book that could be expressed in a film: heartbreak and guilt so palpable to the person that they become a physical presence.

Back to your more intelligent opinions...
