Audience Member The premise of this movie sounded very encouraging. I really looked forward to seeing this absurd tale about a young man who's afraid that if he sleeps he will die. On the dvd cover there was a reference to Jacques Tati and that pulled me over the line to watch this one. Already after a merely 15 minutes this decision came back to bite me in the posterior. The tempo was very slow, something I don't dislike per se, but here it became annoying very quickly. It's clear from the first encounter with Basile that reality and imagination blend together and you cannot tell what is real and what isn't. This makes the whole very difficult to follow. After 45 minutes i contemplated about turning it off but some of the beautiful images saved the movie. Some 'dream'-sequences were nice, such as Basile trying to fly with the red plane and his visit to the bar. The ending was disappointing, one moment you're watching a conversation and when you dare to blink the movie is over. P.S.: the actor portraying Igor (or was it Roger?) was not better than your average flowerpot. Rated 1.5/5 Stars •  Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/15/23 Full Review Audience Member juste génial.
