Dream Scenario - S07 E52

Shoot The Hostage

We’re back with another episode in our season of films about dreams. This week we’re turning once again to Nicolas Cage in the Kristoffer Borgli film, Dream Scenario.

The last time we spoke about Cage was for our Con Air episode and his turn as Paul Matthews in Dream Scenario couldn’t be more different than Cameron Poe. Not a furry bunny in sight in Dream Scenario.

We talk about our first impressions when watching it in 2023, our interpretation and why Paul Matthews is the way he is. If you haven’t listened to our Come True episode, we’d recommend diving in with that one first as we spoke about the Jungian archetypes in that show which helped us unpack Dream Scenario.

Season 7 runs until 23rd September 2024. For the full season line-up head over to our Patreon page and become a free member.
