UWM’s Film Forward Union Theatre

As the program manager for UW-Milwaukee’s film-forward Union Theatre, Sieczek rarely screens films as a casual observer. “I’m always looking at programming ideas,” he says, “Whenever a new film comes out, whenever there’s a festival, and there’s always a festival every month somewhere, I kind of see what’s out there and I slowly start to accumulate titles and lists of films.”
Tarkovsky’s Solaris Re-released on Special DVD
by Dan Wilson
Andrei Tarkovsky’s 1972 “Solaris” has been re-released as part of the Criterion Collection, a continuing series of important classic and contemporary films. You may be familiar with “Solaris” from Stanislaw Lem’s classic science fiction novel or Steven Soderbergh’s 2002 film starring George Clooney, but if that’s your only exposure to this story, Tarkovsky’s interpretation is well worth viewing.
