Goofs:
Factual errors: In the scene of zero gravity, a candle is seen burning. The shape of a candle's flame in conditions where gravity exists is produced by rising of hot air, which is lighter. In conditions of zero gravity adjective "lighter" has no meaning. Therefore, this candle should not burn or should burn looking like it is glowing. moreQuotes:
Dr. Snaut: We don't want to conquer space at all. We want to expand Earth endlessly. We don't want other worlds; we want a mirror. We seek contact and will never achieve it. We are in the foolish position of a man striving for a goal he fears and doesn't want. Man needs man! moreSoundtrack:

I don't know any other film which moves me like this film does. The first pictures when Chris moves in and out of the picture, and the water flowing, has the mark of a genius work. And when he wants to taker her dress off, and he has to cut it with scissors, or when he makes her go into the space ship, I don't know any other film which can show the language of our dreams like this film, and the language of mourning. A masterpiece from the master.
