Abre los ojos: Open your eyes

"Open your eyes" is the original movie that gave " Vanilla Sky" the idea of it's remake. It stars Penelope Cruz , and Eduardo Noriega. It's a bout a man (Cesar) that nearly dies in a car accident but it does cause him to completely disform his face into a hideous monster. He is going through pain and suffrage, he was willing to pay all the money in the world but only to wear a mask. One night he gets drunk and at the end of the movie we realized that he had died since that part. He had enter a program that freezes him after he dies that way he can be waken up in the future years from then, in order to fix his face with all the new technology that will be in the future. Basically the theme of the movie is " A DREAM LAND". eVERy thing that happen after the drunken incident is all the mind of Cesar and he thinks everything that happens is real. The reason for that is because of the program deletes the ending of his last memory and restores it with new events that are happening after his face is fixed. The point is that he himself controls his surroundings, its all in his mind. The relationship he had with Sofia, the fight he had with his friend Antonio and him being in jail for killing Sofia for beliveing it was the other woman that cause his face to be destroyed; it was all a projection of Cesar's Mind because he was in his own DreamLand.
