Not An Ordinary Dream Movie Analysis

715 Words3 Pages

Not an Ordinary Dream. Have you ever heard what a premonition is? It will be explained with a movie example, but what it really means is a strong feeling a person has that something is about to happen, usually unpleasant. Usually it happens to a person when he/she falls asleep and wakes up knowing if he/she is living a reality or if it is a dream. This does not happen to many people, but imagine one day not knowing if what you are living is a dream or not. This movie has a protagonist who is played by Sandra Bullock (Linda Hanson), who is the one that has the premonition, Julian McMahon (Jim Hanson), who is the husband, and Courtney Taylor Buress (Bridgette Hanson), who plays the role of the oldest daughter. What these characters have in common is that they live in the same house and …show more content…

Bridgette thinks Linda is really not taking care of them because at first Linda doesn’t want to wake up to leave her daughters to school, but he has to because Bridgette is always hurrying up Linda. One day it starts raining and Linda asks for help because she had to get in the clothes that were hanged out and Bridgette starts running all the way to a glass door. She got her face al cutted and that is the moment where Jim calls Joanne to help Linda. She thought her mother was obviously the best but what she saw during that time made her daught who was really her mother. My conclusion through these movie is that the story is really shocking I can’t even imagine my life being like that even a week. I think is more a Destiny’s thing. What I think is that it maybe it was a lesson for Linda to make her made good choices and then they gave her the opportunity to live again to have hope or faith in something again. I think that the image that shows Linda pregnant is a resurrection thing. Maybe what happened to Jim was his destiny. I think everything happens for one

    One of the factors that define Inception are the conflicts that appear in the film. A major conflict is the battle between Cobb and society. In Inception, faceless corporations are trying to kill Cobb, while the U.S. government is trying to imprison him because of a crime that he didn’t commit. These are examples of the “person against society” conflict, which can be considered as a characteristic of science-fiction.

In this paper I will argue why the boys should be dealt with under the Restorative Justice System, and not under the Retributive Justice System. I will also talk about how they would be dealt with under the Youth Criminal Justice Act (YCJA). The four boys are clearly very upset with themselves because they let what they thought would be just a fun prank turn into a violent crime.

    To dream is to desire an achievement which seems unobtainable. Most everyone has trouble convincing themselves that their dreams are within reach. Jim Carrey once said, “So many of us choose our path out of fear disguised as practicality.” This is a result of allowing dreams to remain dreams and, instead, opting to take a more reliable path. In doing so, a sense of emptiness that never completely dies out is often developed.

    What does it mean to dream? Well, I believe dreams will always remain a mystery of phenomenons that science will never be able to explain. However, we can interpret our dreams in many different aspects. Philosophers, such as Alan Watts, interpret dreams in an interesting way, such as it being an adventure (The Dream of Life). From this, I’d like to think of dreams as adventures for our minds; we’re subconsciously wandering to a new adventure every time we decide to rest our eyes.
