Re: OK, now that we've gotten you broken in gently...

Don't feel ashamed - Stalker killed both my wife and me, and we are both native Russian speakers, of course. It is simply too trendy - the 1970 Soviet intelligentsia poking its own orifices, I thought.

Yes, I did see the Criterion release, it is great. It is one of my perhaps twenty favorite films, far ahead of the 2001. If you haven't seen it in a long time, I almost envy you - my date with it after fifteen years or so was mesmerizing. It helps that Banionis has been one of the favorite actors for decades.

My feelings about the remakes - ALL remakes - has been completely negative all along.

Last night I saw again the Purple Noon - I saw bits and pieces of the remake and that was enough for me... Delon is not a great artist, but there was an ocean of talent between him and Matt Damon.
