Shallow Ground
the rare film where it would make more sense if it was the protag's dream. see, the thing about the abuse of "all a dream" twists is that i don't personally have dreams where characters/faces/names/narratives stay consistent. shallow ground is like an actual dream. 269
it's like if i fell asleep watching the x files and dreamt something in the vague shape of a monster-of-the-week episode (complete with 100% lifted musical cues). immediately upon waking up i might have thought i was cooking a great story in my subconscious, but on reflection it was irreparably convoluted... and why the hell was everyone naked? 958
