Stalker by Tarkovsky

Posted by MichaelV8 on June 1, 2009 at 05:42:30:
I've seen the Kino version twice now and part of a third time with my wife. What am I missing in the translation? Some of the words in the subtitles are obviously wrong. The voice over isn't that good either.

Monkey, doesn't the wife refer to him as a he? But Monkey is really a she. At least the headgear indicates that.

The film is difficult enough without adding a language roadblock. And then there is the partial quotations from the bible. Was this part of a game Tarkovsky was playing with Soviet authorities?
