One of the most compelling films I've ever seen. This is one of those movies that you can watch again and again. From the same director who brought us The Enternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, he delivers another astonishing film. Gael Garcia Bernal plays, Stephane Miroux an artistic man with a sleep disorder which makes it almost impossible for him to distinguish reality. His spells of sleep walking lead to unfortunate revealing details about his neighbor Stephanie who he has romantic feeling for. This movie really uses alot of abstract art and mixes it in stephanes bizarre dreams. It is shot in three different launguages, Spaish, French, and English which add to the confusion of the dreams. Another notable character is Guy(gee) played by Alain Chabat, who is a middle aged pervert who's life revolves around getting laid. He scene brought alot of comedy to the film, and without him i think the film would have been completely different. This film won a few independent film festival awars, and really should have won more. My rating 8.5/10!
