Vanilla Sky

I want to recommend a american movie, “Vanilla Sky”, which is SF, mistery and romance genre. I guess students in our class would not have seen the movie because it was released in 2001.

David Aames (Tom Cruise) is the wealthy owner of a large publishing firm in New York City. He have a girlfriend, Julianna "Julie" Gianni (Cameron Diaz), but he is introduced to Sofia Serrano (Penélope Cruz) by his best friend at a party. Then David and Sofia fall in love. When Julie know the fact, she attempts to kill herself and David in a car crash.

While Julie dies, David remains alive, but his face is horribly disfigured. he gets drunk at a bar with Sofia, and he is left in the street. David is awakened the next day by Sofia, and they continue to have a relationship. After that, David has his face repaired, but strange things begin to happen such as brief visions of his distorted face and showing Julie's face instead of Sofia’s face.

It was a little bit difficult for me to understand because there is a incredible reversal in the movie. If you know the reversal, You would be surprised and could gain enlightenment.
