Vanilla Sky Review

Vanilla Sky is a psychological thriller film that revolves around David Aames, a wealthy and successful publisher who is involved in a car accident that leaves him disfigured. David struggles to distinguish between what is real and what is a dream, and as his mental state deteriorates, he discovers a shocking truth about his life that changes everything. Furthermore, the film has a cast with names like Tom Cruise, Penélope Cruz, and Cameron Diaz, who are outstanding and deliver a nuanced and compelling performance. The film works because of its visually stunning cinematography, dreamlike sequences, and an intricate plot that keeps the audience guessing until the end. On top of that, director Cameron Crowe beautifully adapts Spanish film Abre los Ojos into this Hollywood superhit. Overall, Vanilla Sky's themes of love, loss, and the nature of reality are explored in a thought-provoking and captivating way, making it a must-watch for fans of the psychological thriller genre.

TRIVIA AND POPULAR DIALOGUES

Trivia

The scene with Tom Cruise alone in Times Square is not computer enhanced. The production was given unprecedented permission to shut down Times Square for one Sunday. At the time, the news ticker was providing updates on the George W. Bush-Al Gore election. To avoid dating the film, Crowe got permission to change the NASDAQ sign in post-production.

Sofia's line, "I'll tell you in another life, when we are both cats" was a phrase actually uttered spontaneously in a moment of frustration by Penélope Cruz to Cameron Crowe.

During the Times Square scene, while David is running next to a building with glass walls. If you look very carefully at the next sequence of frames, you can make out a line of people at the window watching the filming of the movie. Cameron Crowe thought about digitally removing them in post-production, but decided it fit the theme of "subtle paranoia" and left them in.

Cameron Diaz was referred to as "CD" during production, to avoid confusing her with Cameron Crowe.

Open Your Eyes (1997) director Alejandro Amenábar said about Cameron Crowe's version of his film: "When I learned, quite some time ago now, that Cameron Crowe was going to write and direct the film based on Open Your Eyes with Tom Cruise in the leading role, I felt honored. Now that I have seen Vanilla Sky, I couldn't be more proud. Cameron has all my respect and admiration. Respect, for having plumbed the deepest meaning of the work. Admiration, for having sought new viewpoints and a fresh approach to the mise-en-scene, giving the film his own unmistakable touch. Vanilla Sky is as true to the original spirit as it is irreverent towards its form, and that makes it a courageous, innovative work. I think I can say that, for me, the projects are like two very special brothers. They have the same concerns, but their personalities are quite different. In other words, they sing the same song but with quite different voices: one likes opera, and the other likes rock and roll."
