DREAM WEAVER

One of the best films so far this year opens soon at an arthouse near you:

The Science of Sleep
Grade: A

Michel Gondry (Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind) wrote and directed this charming, surreal and visually inventive romantic comedy. Mexican heartthrob Gael Garcia Bernal stars as an artist and inventor who has immense difficulty distinguishing between dreams and reality, and Charlotte Gainsbourg plays his perplexed love interest. Like Terry Gilliam’s Brazil, this is a cinematic acid trip that will leave you wondering if someone sprinkled hallucinogens on your popcorn. In English and French.
