I Don't Want to Sleep Alone (Hei yan quan) **
Tsai Ming-liang, 2007
Malaysia
@ IFC Center
I fell asleep during about four consecutive lengthy shots in the first half hour, but it started to gel later on when I figured out the connections between the characters and static shots carried more emotional impact. The intensity built really powerfully toward the end, climaxing in the final shot of the three main characters floating into view at a glacial pace on top of the ever-present mattress.
