Vanilla Sky

Characters swap identities and dreams unfold within dreams in this romantic thriller from star Tom Cruise and writer-director Cameron Crowe. The story – which follows a
rich young playboy (Cruise) after he’s disfigured in a car accident – is an intriguing mixture of pop psychology and science fiction, even if it’s not entirely original. The movie is almost an identical remake of the 1999 Spanish-language film Open Your Eyes.
