all the time.
Dreams act as a cave to hide the remains of our sorrows.
If there are so many misfortunes and ups and downs in the world.
Would we rather sleep forever until we die.
——The dream of young aspiring women
is like a disordered
dream like a wave of water, a wonderful existence.
To say that it is an organism is to always believe that it exists as a substance, not just an ethereal existence.
We can touch it, in a real way. It lives in our cerebral cortex and is not necessarily under our control. It's like a mischievous child with a slingshot, shooting glass balls at random in our brains. The inaccuracy of no probability makes us very unpredictable.
Emotions or sexual desires can be controlled by people, but dreams, although we think we have them, can never be controlled by us.
I once tried to record my dreams, and a notebook with a weird cover was placed by the bedside to record my even weirder dreams. Never believe that the things in the dream can be explained, the things and every detail appearing in the dream are so numerous and strange, who can interpret every detail in a reasonable way, and get everyone's attention. It is almost impossible to agree, because no one can read the whole psychology of another person, and naturally they are unable to read other people's dreams or even their own dreams.
Freud also only defined dreams in the way he thinks, but he cannot define the dreams of everyone in the world.
So attempts to record dreams have almost ended in failure, and even if you wake up and remember the events in your dreams, it seems difficult to state them in simple words.
The dream is like a wave of water, which is randomly and inorganically combined, although it is disorderly, it is full of charm.
The dream becomes the protagonist of the film
Stephane in the film, a guy with active brain cells, as a graphic designer, has a very rich imagination and is good at making and inventing some gadgets by himself. It may be the reason that life is too poor, and the developed and active brain cells can't find a place to vent and function for a while. So, he squandered these brain cells in his dreams. He regards the dream as a feast, and adding some necessary materials can make it a good dream.
Even with such a dreamer, Stephane is powerless to the direction of his dream, and even the dream begins to manipulate Stephane's real life in turn. He was overwhelmed, and eventually developed into the inability to distinguish between dreams and reality. In real life, he thinks that he is dreaming, and when he is dreaming, he mistakenly thinks that the dream is real life.
Dreams have become a breeding ground for Stephane's unsatisfactory real life and unintelligible behavior. Naturally, he couldn't find anyone of the same kind, and he couldn't find anyone who was willing to dream with him.
The film uses a lot of panoramas and long shots to show Stephane's loneliness, empty streets, one-person rooms, closed stairwells, boring offices... Stephane is a monotonous figure, from Mexico to Paris, language barrier, communication barrier Chang, work has nothing to do with design, and it is difficult to get along with colleagues in the office. Under all these circumstances, the sensitive Stephane vented all his unpleasant emotions in his dreams, and sleeping and dreaming became the happiest time of the day for Stephane.
The film uses a lot of surreal pictures to show Stephane's dream. The characters in the dream are almost all the people around Stephane, colleagues in the office, neighbors, mother, and himself, as well as some weird life scenes. The presentation of Stephane's dream accounts for more than half of the film's content.
I have to say, although Stephane is the leading actor of the whole film, but after watching the whole film, I suddenly realize that Stephane's dream is the biggest and most important role in the whole film. This is an alternative movie with a dream as the protagonist.
Michelle Gondry, who has directed "Warm and Containing Light", changed her perspective from erasing memory to dreaming. Although it is no longer supported by the screenwriter of the powerful screenwriter Charlie Kaufman, the film fully demonstrates the personal image style of Michelle Gondry.
The audience who watched "Nuan Nuan Containing Light" is dominated by the story, while the audience watching this film can completely dominate the story, because all of us can dream, but not all of us can delete memories. The same two films are involved in love. The love in "Warm" is very sensational, while the love in this film is very plain and simple.
This is a Hong Kong translation of the film in Love Sleepwalking
. Compared with the translation of Scientific Sleep, I prefer the title of Love Sleepwalking. Because this film does not explain what kind of sleep can be called science from the positive and substantive, but the story revolves around the ambiguous feelings of Stephanie and Stephane. Then all of Stephane's dreams were related to Stephanie. In the dream, Stephanie finally lived with Stephane, and then they got married and rode Stephanie's favorite toy pony in the field...
until the end of Stephane . Unable to separate the dream from the reality any longer, he began to feel overwhelmed, began to feel awkward, wanted to love Stephanie but didn't dare. In such a contradictory and complicated psychological state, Stephane is doomed to miss the stephanie in reality. In the end, Stephane can only fall in love with Stephanie in his own dream.
Stephane and Stephanie's love is so cute, they are two big kids with adult bodies but childlike hearts. They are both big kids who love fantasy, and Stephane finally found his own kind, Stephanie, so close to his house. They share each other's fantasies together, make wonderful and cute gadgets together, and fall into dreams together.
Their ambiguous relationship begins with a lovely piano-drop event, proceeds with a lovely shared fantasy, and ends with a lovely parting.
I especially like the state when Stephane rolls on Stephanie's bed and acts like a spoiled child. Stephane fantasizes about having sex with Stephanie and keeps saying some vulgar things, but Stephane still doesn't have the courage to kiss Stephanie.
In this way, the lovely love of two lovely people ended in Stephane's dream, and the golden foal took them to the white boat they made together and sailed to a beautiful place.
When Stephane was saying that Stephanie would never fall in love with her, the camera turned to the thing on the side of Stephanie's bed, which was the time machine Stephane gave her, the little white boat they made together ... She put everything he gave her or related to him as close to her body as possible. Such a small detail is enough to show that she loves him.
Unfortunately, Stephane was too deeply manipulated by his dream, so he missed the date with Stephanie in a way that ordinary people couldn't understand.
This man Stephane was completely captured by his dreams, and he always lived in reality in a state of sleepwalking. It's a sad ending, made all the more sad by an inexplicable reason (excessive dreaming).
The music in the whole film is very lazy, like a lullaby that makes people fall asleep, as if to imply that the audience and Stephane fall asleep together, raving before going to bed together, and then fall into a never-ending dream together, sinking and sinking again. sinking...
