\\nThis February at Catching Up On Cinema is \\u201cNOT Made in America\\u201d month!
\\nAll month long we\'ll be reviewing foreign films that have garnered American remakes.
\\nThis week, Kyle and Trevor review Erik Skjoldbj\\xe6rg\'s, Insomnia (1997)!
\\nA Norwegian noir from the Criterion collection, as well as director Skjoldbj\\xe6rg\'s feature debut, the film is a beautifully constructed and entrancing experience.
\\nRemade for American/English speaking audiences by famed director Christopher Nolan in 2002, both versions of the film have their individual merits, however the Norwegian original proves to be the more layered and thought provoking experience.
\\nBorderline daring in it\'s execution and presentation, the film is masterfully constructed in a variety of subtle ways that are deeply rewarding to particularly attentive viewers.
