Vanilla Sky Clues (lucid dreaming)

David Aames is looking, like all of us, for what is "real" in his life. Nothing in the movie is random. Everything in the movie is placed to convey meaning. Have fun spotting clues to what is "real".
 

  1. The sky changes colour to signify a possible dream. Watch the sky in the scene after David wakes up in the street.
  2. All Television sets and monitors contain clues. Watch to identify which movies are on the monitors of Times Square.
  3. Notice the movie that plays on the tv set in the prison scenes. It will return later as a story point.
  4. Listen for the sound of a computer modem connecting. Where do you hear it? It's important.
  5. What recording artist do you hear in the love scene with Sofia? He'll return later to play a key part in the mystery.
  6. Early in the movie you can spot a famous movie star from the 1950's. She's been compared to Penelope Cruz. She represents the emotional longing that will soon be fulfilled in David Aames.
  7. Codes to the movie's secrets appear on blackboards and all graphics. Look for them.
  8. There are phrases said to David Aames by David's psychiatrist and a man in a blue jacket that later returns to reveal all to David. Listen for them.
  9. Listen carefully to the man in the restaurant. He may be telling the truth.
  10. Listen for a casual phrase, spoken by David at his birthday party, that announces the secret of VANILLA SKY.
  11. Watch for posters on David Aames' bedroom wall. They all convey messages to the movie's secrets.
  12. Listen for the phrase VANILLA SKY. It will return later to change David Aames forever.
  13. Album or CD covers that appear within the movie all contain clues - look for them.
  14. Pay attention to a very special dog named Benny.
  15. Listen closely to everything said in the elevator - all will be revealed.

Watch for the cameo appearance of Steven Spielberg - part of the pop culture thrill ride of VANILLA SKY.
