Rating:  Summary: A remarkable film, I wonder if Chris Nolan (memento) saw it? Review: Winter Sleepers... if one hasn't guessed by other work by Tykwer that he loves to explore and deconstruct a "moment", to watch the ripple effects from seemingly random encounters, this film will cement arguements on what his auteur paradigm is.As a piece of cinema, Winter Sleepers is engaging in its eliptical nature. Camerawork, acting, story (except the denoument) are top-notch, the production design and color schema are intriguing, too. Perhaps not Tykwer's best work, but still well worth repeat viewing (my standard for a DVD purchase) -- and heads above the vast majority of American Independent cinema.
