Sleepwalk With Me
Directed by Mike Birbiglia
Starring Mike Birbiglia, Lauren Ambrose
Grade B+
Sleepwalk
With Me is a charming documentary-style drama chronicling a serious sleep
problem brought on by relationship stress. The movie included segments where
the director spoke directly to the audience and parts of story comedic story
telling. The movie is funnier than what you would imagine from a
documentary-style movie, but it is what is expected of a movie directed by a
stand-up comedian. The story development is strong and believable as the cast
reacts and adapts to situations brought on by the sleep trouble, uncertainty
about relationships, and a desire to do more in life. There are emotion-filled
moments when you truly feel sad for the characters. The drama is successfully balanced
with laugh-out-loud comedy.
