Gary Sheller (Freeman) is caught in a midlife crisis: dead-end job, depressing life and a deteriorating relationship with his girlfriend Dora (Paltrow). That is, until he meets Anna (Cruz), the girl of his dreams. Able to see her only while asleep, Gary seeks out an expert on lucid dreaming techniques (DeVito) who agrees to help Gary carry on the most satisfying relationship of his life. But as Gary continues to shun reality, his waking life troubles only worsen in this illuminating dark comedy. (official distributor synopsis)

I knew how it would turn out from the conversation in the mattress shop... But I was still surprised and touched by the ending. In short, an original film that entertained and moved me.__P.S. I was amused when Simon Pegg asked Martin Freeman in the bookstore what they were doing in "this hobbit hole".
