Bondarchuk also was in King Lear so Solaris was a reunion of sorts.

I now remember him. He reminds me somewhat of Klaus Kinski, both physically and in intensity.
Tremendous actor.
I "reviewed" W and P a few weeks ago here. I'll follow up on your classic other adaptation recommendations.

You mean Banionis, the lead actor in Solaris.

But the actor who played King Lear was J�ri J�rvet, who also played very well Dr. Snout in Solaris.

Bondarchuk is the one who played Pierre in W&P. he also directed the Waterloo, with Rod Steiger as Napoleon - another strong recommendation (Patrick did not like it... bummer!).
- I confused the two "Bs," not the faces. Jarvet, I recall mentioning in - tinear 11:51:02 11/02/07 (0)
  my comments on this forum a long time ago, was superb in Solaris.
