i could not agree more with the quote this be one of the best film ever make . if you think vanilla sky be simply a re make and you could not be more wrong . there be tremendous depth in this film represent visually and musically and and emotionally . visually and because the film be soft and delicate at time ( early scene with sofia ) and at other time powerful and intense ( time square and post climactic scene ) . the music and sound tie into this movie so perfectly . without the music and the story be only half tell . nancy wilson create an emotional and yet eclectic and score for the film which could not be more suitable for such a dream like theme ( although never release and i be able to get my hand on the original score for about $ 60 . if you look hard and you may be able to find a copy yourself ) . crowe other musical selection and such a the beach boy and josh rouse and spiritualize and sigur ro and the monkees and etcetera etcetera and be also perfect fit for the film ( crowe have an ear for great music ) . more importantly and the emotional theme in this film ( i. e. love and sadness and regret ) be very powerful and and be amplify tenfold by the visual and musical experience and as well a the ingenious dialogue while i admit and the elevator scene bring tear to my eye time and time again . the best part of this film however ( a if it could get any good ) be that it be so intelligently craft such that each time you see the film and you will catch something new so watch closely and and be prepare to think . sure and a theme become obvious after the first or second watch and but there be always more to the story than you think . this be easily cameron crowe best work and and altogether a work of brilliance . much of my film making and musical inspiration come from this work alone . it have honestly touch my life and a true art have a tendency of do . it continually surprise me that there be many people that can not appreciate this film for what it be ( i guess to understand true art be an art itself ) . bottom line represent vanilla sky be in a league of it own .
