This week we take a look at the third film in Flanagan’s “Latin Titles Trilogy” Before I Wake (originally titled Somnia). A film about the dreams of a child and our dreams for our children.

We chat about the incredible acting, the emotionally moving film, and why the ending didn’t quite work for us.

Next week take a look at Flanagan’s final 2016 film: the prequel/sequel Ouija: Origin of Evil

Discussion Question: What is your favorite use of dreams in storytelling?
