The Good Night is Jake Paltrow's first feature length film. It stars Simon Pegg as the lead, along with (sister) Gweneth Paltrow, Danny DeVito, Penelope Cruz, and Martin Freeman. It's about addiction, but a not so harmful addiction...dreams.
An unhappy man played by Simon Pegg has an erotic type dream about a mysterious woman played by Penelope Cruz. Soon he finds himself covering the walls with sound padding and blacking out the room, reading dreaming books, taking dreaming classes, and experimenting with Elucid dreaming, so he can get the most out of these reoccuring dreams.
I related to a lot of this movie. Not only the marriage problems but the desire to dive into a new hobby head first, as unproductive as it seems, and become completely obsessed with it, and having it be an obvious escape for whatever is going on in my life I'm not comfortable with.
