Dream Quest- the Search for the Legend

[Daniel J. Lorenzo]

I COULDN'T BELIEVE IT

no running through endless corridors, endless doors that open and go nowhere.

no falling backwards into a black abyss

or the endless spiraling of a fall deep sleep crushed between two mattresses, suffocating into a deep hush of cotton...

No, I actually had A Good dream.

And in a Good Dream you wake up refreshed because all your fears have forever slipped away into a glowing dusty star. And of course you get the girl.

There she was, sitting directly next to me, holding my hand, smiling with a glow of acceptance and confidence that would last the dawn of a new age...All that beauty in its purist form.

And I say to myself while I’m in the dream- “hey, this is great dream!” and you roll with it because it may end at any moment.

­

Oops… I’m now in the middle of a classroom, naked. People begin to laugh.

 

I digress, but it just keeps happening to me. Where was I?

Ah!  A good dream were breathing is easy and you feel weightless.

~~~~~~Cut to the chase-the most important part of the dream. all this lovely glowee-wow aside,  was< and I kid you not>, there was movie outline as a backdrop. With the most concise and beautiful storyboards and production sketches that I have every seen.

I remember it was journey into the Pine and across the Desert and up and over a Mountain Range, but What mountain range? seemed to me it was southeast California looping into Nevada territory and I might just do that,

but Who were the characters?

and Why were they running away?

to this day,I've been trying to reproduce them because it was a Legend of a film.

The crosshatching, the scenery-VS- the characters..the direction.

But I cant remember, so I must go back, back into the Dream.
