La Science des Rêves

Gael Garcia Bernal as Stephane inspects his woollen horse in The Science of Sleep

It looks like we’re seriously pursuing The Science of Sleep to screen at the Varsity in late August. I love Michel Gondry’s work, so I’m really excited. Check out the trailer here.

It looks as if both a French and English-language version were shot, which is unusual, but not unprecedented. I seem to remember a lame Gerard Depardieu comedy Mon Père ce Héros / My Father the Hero being shot in two different languages. Or maybe it was dubbed and my memory is inventing things.

    Cool! I didn’t know it existed but I’ll definitely see it when it comes out here. I gave my sister “Eternal Sunshine…” on DVD for Christmas and she still hasn’t gotten around to watching it though she made time to go and see “RV”. She’s rubbish.

    Why would anyone want to see RV? Rachael, if you’re out there, why?

    I do remember watching 2 different versions of Mon Pere, Ce Heros, a French one and an American one, both starring Gerard Depardieu.

    Here the link to the French version http://www.cinemotions.com/modules/Films/fiche/1550/Mon-Pere-ce-heros.html

    Bah. It turns out that the movie was shot only once, and in a mixture of French, English and Spanish, but mostly English.
