Ranker's 10 Mind-Blowing Films Influenced by Dream Theory

"You don't have to be a psych major to catch the gist of dream theory - especially if you're down to explore the deep abstractions of the human mind. Dreams, according to Freud, remove our cognitive filters; "they are disguised fulfillments of repressed wishes." They tell us what we really want, without all the whips and chains of society. Freud blames our repressed sexual desires, but it's simpler than that. In dreams, we have complete control, and the best filmmakers know how to use this control to sway audiences. To movie buffs, this is known as the Oneiric Metaphor, which expresses the intricacies of the human subconscious through picture. A closer look at these metaphors shows us a bit more about the creators of film and the people who watch them." - ranker.com
