science of sleep...
I downloaded Science of Sleep, and I can't help but wonder if Stéphane is schizophrenic.
So Gondry uses "realismo magico", i really like those movies. I was lost until I realized that we're watching the movie through Gael's eyes... I still don't think that the transitions from the real world and the magical slumber world of Stephane were smooth though, but i really did enjoy it. Just like I enjoyed Pan's Labyrinth, and I have to admit that I cried with the ending scene as well as with Pan's Labyrinth. In fact they're very similar... in structure in my view atleast.
I also can't help but relate to this quirky character, Stephane. I act so odd at times, and I often find people in my surroundings trying to make things easier for me. I guess we can't all pretend and conform to normalcy. I do lack social and interaction skills most of the time, and many people in my life have been bothered by that. i dont mind being socially retarded all that much, anymore.
im not sure how gondry tries to portray this character... but i like him... a lot:)
so is the movie appreciative of artsy and unorthodox individuals (and in many ways retarded)... or is it a melancholic view of how pathetic they seem when compared to everyone else, and just a sad realization of how bad they have it? or maybe that's not the point at all hah. maybe im just going on a trip.
