 Visually-stunning drama September 9, 2008
3 out of 3 found this review helpful
I Dreamt Under The Water is a stunning and visceral film that deals with the dark side of sex, relationships and human nature. The engaging drama follows a man who is on a downward spiral of self-destruction following the death of his beloved friend. The bereaved man becomes embroiled in a world of drugs, crusing and gay prostitution until he meets a woman who needs help even more than he does. The film is challanging and, at times, not always an easy watch but the viewer is rewarding with excellent performances, stunning imagery and cinematography and genuinely sexy scenes.
 Into the bleak Parisian underbelly... November 9, 2008
'I Dreamt Under the Water' (French, with English subtitles) is a sombre portrayal of human misery in a contemporary inner city environment. Antonin (apparently a university drop-out, though the actor is mid-30s), lives with his mother, who is still reeling from an unpleasant divorce, in a situation of some poverty. He plays guitar in a band, and has an unrequited crush on the band leader, and his best friend, Alex. When Alex dies of a heroin overdose, Antonin is stricken over his loss, and spirals into an underbelly of Parisian life of drugs and anonymous sex. He meets a woman, Juliette, and has a second-chance to save the life of someone he loves.
The dark lighting, underground clubs and grimy alleyways all serve to complement the film's bleak ambiance, which offers little hope for redemption. The sex scenes are passionless, explicit, and unsimulated. The most memorable feature is the performance given by Hubert Benhamdine (Antonin), who beautifully depicts the mental torment suffered by Antonin after Alex's death.
The film suffers somewhat after the first half, becoming quite slow-moving following the entry of Juliette. More seriously, 'I Dreamt Under the Water' offers little thematically that is new or original. If you can find a copy, 'Fogi is a Bastard' deals exquisitely with similar issues in a much more intense manner.
Overall, 'I Dreamt Under the Water' is worth a watch - if only for Hubert Benhamdine's performance and the superb music soundtrack - though it is doubtful whether it would rate a second-viewing.
