Andrei Tarkowski in einem Interview 1977: „This is what the situation seems until the last scene in which they are resting in the café after their expedition and Stalker’s wife appears, a weary woman who has seen a lot in her life. Her arrival forces the heroes to face something new, unexplained and astonishing. It is difficult for them to understand the reasons for which this woman, who suffered so much because of her husband, she gave birth to a sick child through his fault, still loves him with the same limitless generosity she felt for him in the days of her youth. Her love, her devotion – this is exactly the miracle with which one can counter the lack of faith, spiritual emptiness, cynicism – that is, all which the heroes of the film have lived until now. […] In Stalker everything must be spelled out to the end – human love is this miracle which can defy all the dry theorising about hopelessness of the world. This emotion is an undeniable positive value in every one of us. It is what man leans on, what remains his forever.“ (englisch) (Memento des Originals vom 1.
