Vanilla Sky

I chose the movie Vanilla Sky because I personally feel it is the best representation of what the average person goes through emotionally in life, through highs and lows of life. In the beginning of the movie David, the main character has the life that most people dream of. He is in his prime and living life to the absolute fullest. His father was a well respected and rich man who owned the TV Digest magazine company. He was killed in a car crash with his wife and left everything to his son, David, including more than half of the ownership of his company.

With this, he leads the life of a hedonist with parties, vacations, beautiful women, and any other luxury of life that he desires. At this current moment of time, he is having sexual relations with a woman of the name Julie. He has a casual perspective on the whole situation and doesn’t seem to show true interest or respect for her. Julie, on the other hand, falls hard and becomes somewhat obsessed with him. He throws another extravagant party for his birthday and she actually shows up uninvited. In return for her annoying presence he is delighted by his best friend’s date, Sophia. His eyes are glued to her as soon as she enters the room and he becomes completely


This revolutionary point in his life where he discovers that life can’t all be a dream and that facing the consequences and harsh realities of life lead to a more fulfilling and less complicated life in the end. He also learns a lesson that you must work for the luxuries and rewards that come in life. It took a lot of strength to choose a life knowing no one and have to work very hard to live the lifestyle he once had. Everything that once meant anything to him he gave up, and for what? He gave it up for his sanity and for some sense of normality. It was a jump from a very high building. By overcoming the trauma and pain from his prior life and lucid dream he was also overcoming his fear of heights by taking that very crucial leap.

He goes insane and is so frustrated by what this dream has led him to. So he decides to refer to his father figure, the psychiatrist. He suggests that they go to the Life Extension Company to straighten everything out and make sense of all the craziness. There they discover what the lucid dream is and that all along he has been living a dream, not real life. In reality he never saw Sophia after that night at the club. He never had that loving relationship with her because she wasn’t real, and neither was the psychiatrist. On the top of the Life Extension building he experiences a moment of choice. His choice determines whether he will continue to lead a life of fallacy in his lucid dream or take a step off of the sky rise in the vanilla sky and enter the real world, where there are no objects of his desire such as; Sophia.

infatuated with her within their first conversation. Julie, sees their connection and it drives her crazy, literally. They become unaware of Julie’s resentment and go off together into another part of his house where they learn more about one another and that they like each other even more than they would have expected. He shows her a Monet painting of the vanilla sky and tells her this was his mother’s favorite. This meaningful event is revealed at the end.

After their time at the party, their connection led them to Sophia’s apartment where he truly falls in love with her. As he is walking to his car in the morning, Julie drives up. He questions if sh
