Me + Richard Armitage 
So where to start. I read your overall review first then went back to read the summary and analysis which helped me a great deal! I plan on seeing the movie again with a much clearer
perspective about the plot, subplot, sub sub plot. Maybe Richard was drawn to the complexity of the characters and the idea of
fantasy vs reality what is real vs what we believe is real or wish was real. Maybe he too
was a sleepwalker as a child. I was although I
made it to the bathroom brushing my teeth
when my mom shook me awake never out the door and into my car. My niece
sleepwalks too. I think the mark of a good movie that leaves an impression is to view
multiple times finding new things and sayings and expressions each viewing. So kudos to
the director for the layers he puts in Sleepwalker. I agree wholeheartedly that the
costumes worn by Ahna were bizarre and sort
of upscale designer but maybe retro consignment not what a grad student would perhaps wear. Thank you for such a thought
provoking and brilliant analysis of the film!
I think the director would be delighted and
flattered by your review and analysis.

I was a sleepwalker as a child and still do it occasionally.
I think it must have been an interesting script to read. He has frequently said that he enjoys speculative and science fictiony sorts of things.
I’m glad the review was useful to you, but I never write with the creatives in mind as an audience. My judgment falls where it falls. What they think of what I have to say, if they are aware of it, is up to them. This is really important to me — otherwise I’d be nothing more than a shill for an industry that I’m at best ambivalent about.

Yeah I just think your analysis of the movie
insightful for me as a viewer bec I went
huh? at the end of it like what just happened
here. Then I started to read some interviews
on line about it but I only watched it bec
Richard was in it. I thought I read that he said
he didn’t get it either when he first read
the script but then went on to say something
like he was playing two characters which
actually helped me more to understand his
role in the movie. As an aside I was curious
about your thoughts on The Golden Hour
I’ve tried to locate some mentions of it online
re his character of Dr Alex Track. I saw
The Golden Hour on You Tube this past
week and thought he was well ummm
emotionally detached maybe?

The character was supposed to be that way, a little. The kind of doctor who gives himself to his career and his patients but not so much to his friends / lover.
Do you know this site? There are really excellent discussions of his early work on it. I don’t think I ever posted about TGH in any detail. http://richardarmitageonline.com/

After Brain on Fire and The Pilgrimage ( too violent for me) Sleepwalker was a great role for him. I have not been as satisfied with his selections but this one brought him back to me. Had just enough suspense and thrill to keep me wanting to watch it. Plus he was not just in it here and there. It is one of those movies you back to off and on. It is on my computer for which I am very happy. I believe I would enjoy Urban and The Shed Crew, if it ever gets to be a DVD. Then of course we have O8 to look forward to, but I will have to see how much he really is on screen before I decide. The man looks gorgeous on big screens and even little one. )
