How do the dream world and real world affect each other? What kinds of dreams have you experienced?

Licensed therapist Jonathan Decker and filmmaker Alan Seawright are diving into the psychology of dreams in Inception. There’s so much to look at, from therapeutic concept of dreams to the incredible filmmaking. Jonathan talks about the psychology of dreams and what Inceptions gets right and wrong. Like time dilation and physical sensations in dreams. Alan talks about how Inception is just Christopher Nolan talking about making movies… you won’t be able to unthink it! He explains how Inception can be so complicated but keep the audience entertained and invested in the story. And they answer the big question... does the top fall?

This episode was filmed during the Writer’s Strike. This episode was uploaded before the WGA and the AMPTP reached a deal.

According to SAG-Aftra, independent film reviewers are welcome to discuss movies that have already come out. These films were produced under previous contracts and wouldn’t be affected by any changes resulting from the strike.

Any praise for the films we discuss is praise for the writers, actors, directors, and so many other artists and craftspeople who made them. Without their labor, we wouldn’t be able to watch our favorite films together. Without their labor, our show wouldn’t be as impactful. Without their labor, our show wouldn’t exist.

We support their strike efforts. If you’d like to support them as well, go to www.entertainmentcommunity.org.
