Asleep On A Bicycle

Tony Foster’s Asleep on a Bicycle features an ax-wielding ancestral rival to Lizzie Borden; a big-hearted lesbian nun; a late great Italian screen siren; a dream-child named after the family cat who grows up before our mind’s eye; a hot screenplay by some flavor-of-the-week writer geek whose high six figure manuscript stars a tough-talking vagina; and sundry others who figure grandly in the waking dream of a young woman who may or may not be lost in a fatal coma following a bizarre bicycle accident. This trippily surreal comedy manages to touch places in our hearts and obscure corners of our collective unconscious.
