I have decided to write my paper on Films and Dreams. Many films have used dreams and dream logic to convey their message, this ties back to the Kane book where he talks about dreams being the beginning of storytelling in the oral tradition.
Right now I'm going to cover Eraserhead by David Lynch, and Synecdoche New York does anyone know of any other films that use dreams or dream logic? That would be incredibly helpful.
I was thinking of using Waking Life a film by Richard Linklater until i realized that it took place in a dream but had little to do with Dreams as a means of conveying story.

La Belle Captive, Sexson suggested it to me, it's based on Rene Magritte's surrealism.
ReplyDeleteTurns out he meant to talk to you about it but mixed us up. Remind me on Wednesday and I'll give you the book the film is based on if you're interested.
