      Actually as a Spanish speaker, Penelope's voice is quite annoying in both languages. I guess every language is captivating when you don't know how to speak it.
      Penelope ,in my opinion acts better in Spanish movies than in American's ones ,but for example Antonio Banderas (also Spanish) has a beautiful voice no matter what language he speaks, and he acts great in any movie, but I like him specially in the Spanish movie "átame"

    This film is extremely underrated. It got 6.9 on IMDB. Not everyone understands it. it's a quite complex and complicated story-line, but for those who pay attention (and understand life is a dream), all the pieces in the puzzle falls in place at the end. It really is a masterpiece, first class acting, full of unforgettable quotes and a very special interesting kind of mood. In my book this movie is a 9 ++

    I always liked Kurt Russell and he does a brilliant performance here as David's psychologist, but modelled after what David imagined to be a father figure, and Russell nailed that paternal aspect just as beautifully here. You can see just how much he does love David as if he were his own son, and how David says that he loves him and everyone there, too.

    The deleted bathroom footage has Kurt Russell's strongest performance in the film. I wish Crowe had left some of that in, as well as the line where David tells Sophia he can't settle for a dream because she's better than he imagined. Otherwise, the original ending is perfect, especially when David is awakened by a voice that sounds uncannily similar to Sophia's voice--the same voice that opens the film. The voice used to wake up David in the alternate ending sounds like Julie Gianni. This is one of the most beautiful films ever made.

      so, how does he know about her?
      in his dream he idealized her to the point she's virtually the perfect, flawless, woman for him but in reality he never went to know her deeply.
      at no point of his real life they are a couple, they only shared a night and one time she tried to help him recovering from his depression, eventually quitting.

      I think the fog is finally clearing. I realize now that the pharmaceauticals I've been taking, have been in excess. It's caused me a lot of grief, running out of my medication early. It took having to be without it for several days, and even taking a lower dose for weeks to truly understand the cycle of pain I've caused myself.
      Yes, you're right. That brief moment of being high, of feeling that bliss, is not worth the weeks of agony. I'm finally exercising again, eating right, and getting more sleep.

      I mean some people really need them. Varies from person to person. So I don't want to give any bad medical advice.
      Best advice I could offer is try a little bit of a lower dose for a few days, or stagger it and do your regular dose one day, lower the next, regular next, for about a week, and then see if you can handle a lower dose a few days in a row.
      Most people who are trying to quit take this route. It's definitely safer than going full dose to none at all.
      I don't know what your anxiety level is and what you're taking, or how much you need it, so I don't want to tell you how you should treat yourself.
      But if you feel like you don't need them as much anymore, or they're a hinderance, then it's okay to take a step back and see how you adapt to less.

She says, "in the way someone looks at you, the way the wind bows on a cool summer day, a laugh you hear somewhere, you'll remember our feeling, and that will be me... " He surrounded himself with all the people he loved, all the people who are now dead, to see him off... I sometimes wonder if he made the right choice. Couldn't they connect the frozen, sleeping, dreaming people together so they could experience (live?) a shared dream, a shared existence? Wouldn't that be just as real as the so-called real physical world? After all, when we impact other people's lives, the memory of that impact eventually lives on, only in what we remember of it...

In it I suggest that The Eating of The Forbidden Fruit is actually describing a Cellular Event rather than a human one, that there might be memories of events that happened to the cells in our bodies stored in our DNA. It is my hypothesis that The Eating of The Forbidden Fruit is actually describing The Absorption of The Reproductive Egg into The Female Body. I also suggest that The Pandora's Box Myth Story is describing the same event, except from the Greek Perspective. Here's a link if you're interested. Thanks again!

    There is so much great music in this film. I was introduced to Freur (Doot Doot), Spiritualized (Ladies and gentlemen we are floating in space) and Sigur Ros (The nothing song) because of this. I bought it on VHS and remember watching the music credits roll at the end over and over and wrote down the artists and songs, then went out and bought the CD's. Beautifully crafted movie and very well edited too. Thanks for posting...

      In some ways, we are all David. Sometimes life feels like some strange dream that suddenly appeared. I mean, think about it. No one really remembers when they were born. It's like, boom, suddenly you're conscious and have memories. You don't know exactly how you got here, when you were a child. You just came to be.
      The only reference we have is what other people tell us about our birth, and maybe a few childhood memories that took shape in our formative years.
      And yes, more than loving others, we want to be loved. Genuinely, truly loved. And for the words "I love you" to truly matter.

      Vanilla Sky is a remake of the spanish film "Abre los ojos" of 1997 where Penelope Cruz acted also indeed. Its so funny how people from Spain said that Cameron Crowe its a fake and failed director, and you american guys quite the opposite. From my perspective, Vanilla Sky is tons better than Abre los Ojos (spanish accent sucks).

    Allow me to indulge you all in a little story.
    In 2016 I had a very lovely girlfriend. She was an exquisite specimen. One day I was going to work and I gave her my Vanilla Sky DVD to watch while I was away.
    When I got home from work some 10-12 hours later she was having a full on existential crisis. Brilliant movie... capable of making psychologically sound individuals question their reality/existence.
    Before that, in 2002, I was at my first year of college. I had no friends or acquaintances in the area. The only thing I was were the two dvds that I owned. One was The Boondock Saints and the other was Vanilla Sky. I used to leave it at the title screen for days at a time just so I had the illusion of people in my living area. It got me through thay very lonely year. Might have to do that again soon now that I'm turning 40 and have no family or friends within my domicile.

    I've been battling complex PTSD for over 15 years now. I have manifested the very reality I dreaded most in my life. I am terrified and I am tired of living with this.
    Happiness to me would be to go back in time and listen to the voice in my head, the voice that screamed, to hold on to an amazing loving beautiful caring kind woman. As beautiful as the character Penelope Cruz is portraying here. I pushed her away and there is no going back. It took me over 10 years to realize this and she is in the arms of another.

      I've been pushing my own wife away these past few weeks due to panic attacks and just feeling numb inside. I'm afraid that if I am too distant, she too will leave me one day. I'm getting help for it though. The best thing you can do is to nurture yourself, and to protect your own mental health. You owe it to yourself most of all. More than the woman you loved even. We do a lot of stuff for our loved ones, but we often forget that we ultimately need to do it for ourselves, to protect our own lives and preserve sanity.
      I think you'll find love again, and someone who will truly understand you, and support you in your efforts to get well. The good thing is, you recognize what the problem is. That's half the battle right there, realizing what it is that's causing you to suffer. Now you can truly heal.
