The Science of Sleep

Sean Alexander

has a great review of Michael Gondry's The Science of Sleep:


"As Gainsbourg remarks in the film, it's hard to create randomness as we tend to create patterns. Gondry directs from his first original screenplay (he collaborated with Charlie Kaufman on the story for Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind) and it lacks the architectural beauty of Kaufman's intricate scripts - purposefully, I would say. In place of the complex patterns and surreal order, Gondry captures the sloppiness of life with a scruffy chaos with no grand design, a life that is not necessarily random, but certainly doesn't feel narratively determined. The connections he makes arise from the images and themes and the feelings expressed in his fantasies. " This sounds very good. (greencine)
