A review of "The Science of Sleep" — 33 weeks ago
WORTH CONSUMING!
Loved ESOTSM and this is different but still has the same brilliance. Like many people, I didn’t really “get” it but the characters, situations, dreams and setting were beautiful and engaging.
The character of Stephane I thought was an exagerrated version of me and a lot of other people. People who prefer to live out their life in books/films/dreams rather than actually LIVE it. I daydream almost constantely and sometimes actually forget what has been done or dreamed, and I thought this film showed this to the extreme.
The ending I agree was ambiguous, but I liked that,the cynics and the optimists could each choose their own ending. But I also agree that it ended too soon, I could have happily watched another hour!
