Job #2
An idea from this story can also be seen in the movie
"Inception". Though this movie has many ideas related to dreaming, It
gives the idea that when a person dreams, time slows down; and his mind speeds up. This was certainly
what happened in Farquhar's case (although with him it was more of a daydream). In some
of chapter 1 and in most of chapter 3 this really fast dreaming occurs in the
form of Farquhar's "escape".

Micah - I was going to give you guys a hint before you read the story - One word! Inception! Not everyone would understand this hint if they hadn't seen the movie, but for those who had, I ended up feeling like it would be too BIG of a hint. I didn't want to tip anyone off to the fact that there were unexpected twists in the story!
ReplyDeleteGlad you didn't, the ending was very surprising! I noticed that Zach thought the same thing, and thought maybe you guys had watched the movie. I watched it twice so I definitely would have suspected a very twisting story.
ReplyDeleteAnother similarity is that the only way to wake up is to die. Too bad Peyton didn't have a totem.
ReplyDeleteYea, I guess he just didn't plan on dying, or at east having a hallucination :)
DeleteGood comparison never thought about it in that light with the dream speeding up and slowing down.
