Recent Dreams




I have recurring dreams about Chicago, the El 'L' trains in particular. The tracks are like roller coaster tracks and the routes are not accurate ( I used to jump on trains in the Loop without checking to see if they were the the right line, fall asleep in transit, and then wake up as the train was pulling into a station with a strange, unfamiliar name, though I never made it to the end of the line in any of these instances). I had a dream about the green line this weekend, one of the routes I never actually took when I lived in Chicago.  Robert and I were trying to get somewhere on the green line and realized we were on the other side of the platform (the wrong side). As in dreams, the correction was almost instantaneous.

Ronnie had a disturbing dream about two teenaged sisters, one of whom was possessed, or else physically or mentally ill. One of the sisters was played by? Meryl Streep. It's hard to tell when you're omniscient and omnipresent in dreams if you are watching tv or if it is really happening (in the dream).

Swedish Auto

The cinematography in this indie film is quite beautiful: lovely lines, interesting angles, novel transitions.
