I just had the strangest experience. I woke up at 9.20am, switched on the radio and promptly fell back asleep. Then I woke up again and walked downstairs, where the kitchen clock read 7am. Confused, I wandered around the house, had a conversation with my dad and then retreated back to bed where I heard about a new film starring Tom Cruise entitled "Valkyrie". It was about the failed assassination attempt on Hitler's life. Then I saw a clip (even though I was listening to the radio, this is when I should have twigged that something was up) which looked like the leftover set from Blackadder Goes Forth. Tom Cruise, in shoddy Nazi regalia, was standing in the centre, as other soldiers clicked away on the laptops in the background. "Hitler iz comingz!", one of the Nazis informed the camera. Then, "Vee haff done ze background check on ze Scientology, it iz not a real religion!". NaziTom looks crushed. End scene.
Then, after this fabulously anachronistic piece of cinema, I woke up. It was just gone 10am and I had a sore throat. The radio was still squawking, film reviews as it turned out. I thought to myself, "Okay, I've just dreamt a made-up film". Now, I google "Tom Cruise" + "Valkyrie" to see that it is an actual film, although maybe not exactly how it was like in my dream.
The lines between fiction and truth are blurred so much now that I don't know what's going on.
