Waking Life (2001)

Director: Richard Linklater
Writer:    Richard Linklater
Cast:      Wiley Wiggins, Ethan Hawke, Julie Delpie

A man shuffles through a dream meeting various people and discussing the meanings and purpose of the universe.

Similar to Scanner Darkly,  this film was also using the animation technique called rotoscoping where live action footage is overlaid with animation. It is great film for those who are interested existentialism and I personally connected to lot of the ideas being discussed in the film. One find books and films to be great when it conveys ideas very close to what you have thought of originally and I find lot of Richard Linklater's work in that category. 

Rating: 5/5
