Hello!
Keren, I read your review, and I could not help thinking that maybe if seen on a large screen in a real theatre, the movie would have looked different to you.
Sometimes those "artistic" scenes are better tolerated when they come in full size
I say this, because Yesterday I saw some of Lord Of The Rings in DVD. It looks so much less impressive. ("so much less" - well english IS my second langauge...)

Did you know that I actually saw the original Insomnia? It was playing in the Haifa film festival of 1997. I saw it on a midnight (Chatzot) and I was very tired during the film. I remeber that It made me feel very uneasy, but I can not remeber the plot almost at all! I wonder how it will be for me to see it "again" now.

Thanks for another review! I enjoy it very much!

Oh and the link to the real NightMute made me feel like visiting this Eskimo village...
There are still Eskimos out there... that is interesting.
