The Missing Files ( Blog 5: Open Your Eyes)

Open Your Eyes was highly interesting to me. I had actually seen Vanilla Sky first, and I like how it was so similar. Some remakes don't do it like this. This made me think that I would understand it more but somehow I still found myself at times getting confused. But what I do know is that it's connection to the Matrix was pretty strong. In my opinion he goes in and out of reality. It's weird because the audience doesn't knows when he stars dreaming or when he's not. It's scary when you see Cesar not knowing what was reality and what was a complete fake. There are people that live in this world know and don't know reality from a fake world.

Research...???????????......

I'm running out of time. I don't know what to do for this project. My topic was going to be about African-American women and how they are portrayed in films. Maybe I should stick with that. I haven't really started on researching it, but I think I know where I want to go with it. I do know that I have to make a decision and quick!

Simone, Simone, Simone

I honestly feel that Simone was a form of the "American Dream" for a large number of people. In a weird way, people want to have that life that Simone portrayed to have. She had no flaws in the peoples eyes. There was a secene in the movie when Viktor was trying to destroy her and she was having interviews where she would say and present herself in the most disgusting way, everyone still loved her. I also think that Simone was representing Hollywood. It's looks like a perfect world to be in. Anything you want can happen, but it's a complete fake. Hollywood always seemed to be another world that most people want to escape to. A place where you can believe anything do anything. In a way, I feel that all of us as people either the life of Simone or think of having that type of life.
