SPOILER-FREE FILM REVIEWS FROM A MOVIE LOVER WITH A HEART OF GOLD!

From the land of 10,000 lakes comes a fan of 10,000 movies!

The Silver Bullet ~ Sleepwalk With Me

Synopsis: A burgeoning stand-up comedian struggles with the stress of a stalled career, a stale relationship, and the wild spurts of severe sleepwalking he is desperate to ignore.

Release Date:  August 24, 2012

Thoughts: I’ve seen star Mike Birbiglia make the rounds on the talk show circuit when his off-Broadway show of Sleepwalk With Me opened and was an unexpected hit.  What I gathered from his interviews and bit of the show that were featured is that he’s a natural storyteller with good presence.  While not every show is easily adaptable to the stage, Birbiglia’s easy-going delivery and structured show could be one of the rare examples that would probably translate well to the silver screen.  Gathering a nice ensemble of familiar faces this might be a nice, um, sleeper hit if the festival circuit buzz is to be believed.

    I saw his stand-up routine in college – he’s a riot! – And he’s even “talked” with me on Twitter 🙂 I really want to see this one.
