Good films about artists and artmaking are a rare treat. So I feel compelled to point them out whenever I find them. Have you seen The Science of Sleep? It’s beautiful! Starring Gael Garcia Bernal as an aspiring disastrology calendar designer who has a hard time telling the difference between his waking life and sleep. (What’s disastrology you ask? Well, dear readers, you’ll have to check out the movie to see.) It’s a love story. But very much about dreams, unrequited yearning and creative process too. The love interest is played by Charlotte Gainsbourg as a sculptor who crafts symbolic objects (birds, boats, trees…) of paper and felt. The art direction and stop motion animation are top notch. I loved this film. Hope you get a chance to love it too. | |
