Waking Life










Ive heard from a few people that this movie is a good one...maybe when i have a bit of "spare" time ill have a squiz!

Apparently this movie is a computer-animated, dreamlike film about a guy who floats in and out of a series of philosophical discussions and ethereal experiences, meeting interesting characters along the way. Each character that this dude meets engages him in an deep, thought provoking discussion. He listens, observes and occasionally responds but then glumly shuffles off to his next encounter. At times, he wakes up in his bed and rubs his eyes, appearing to start a new day. But eventually viewers learn that he is dreaming throughout the film, and is trying to learn to control his dreams and accomplish lucid dreaming, or simply wake up....hmmm sounds all a bit confusing to me, but it must be good.
