From the Dream Archives: Cracked Rear Window

(ORIGINAL ENTRY DATE: 5 AUGUST 2014)

I dreamt I was watching a movie with red-and-cyan colour grading


(Y'know, like those two-colour Technicolor films from the '20s & '30s.)

about a man who stabbed his wife to death with a purple plastic pie cutter


(It's not purple, but you get the picture.)

after she found out he was having an affair with her identical twin sister. The twins — played by Canadian actress Lauren Lee Smith


— wore the exact same hairstyles Julie Christie sported in the film adaptation of Fahrenheit 451.


Oh, and after the husband did the deed, he did a piss-poor job covering up his tracks.


Having thought about it, I wish that was a real movie, blatant similarities to Rear Window notwithstanding (It'd probably be better than most of Ms. Smith's films, too.).
