Reflections (1962)

Directed by Ludwik Dutkiewicz

“A young woman falls asleep on a train and has a dream of finding and entering an old house in the country with a man.”

· 14m

A sophisticated piece of filmmaking, this 1962 short is built around a simple device: a young woman, Andrea (Andrea Adams), falls asleep on a train, has a dream of finding and entering an old house in the country with a man (Ron Dix) who describes the experience in voiceover in a matter-of-fact tone, and then is shaken awake in her seat; once she disembarks, the events of the dream are replayed shot for shot, and she narrates her movements in voiceover. In the final sequence, Andrea repeats her dreamed gesture of staring unhappily into a bedroom looking glass, only this time smashes it, glancing back at her splintered reflection as she is embraced by her lover.
