So, 'Amelie, ich komme...' is a curious piece of 80s cinema. This German drama dives into the world of a mattress dealer, Moses Köhler, who’s grappling with insomnia complaints from his clients. The pacing is a bit unorthodox, keeping you in a sort of dreamlike state, mirroring Moses’s own existential crisis. It’s fascinating how the film critiques modern life's disconnect through the lens of something as mundane as sleep. The practical effects, while minimal, serve the narrative well—like the ‘disposable bed’ concept, which is both absurd and brilliantly reflective of consumer culture. Performances are grounded, adding to that offbeat charm. It might not be everyone’s cup of tea, but it’s definitely distinctive in its approach, you know?
