A comedy that no one has ever dreamed of! "Dream Scenario" is a film produced by the A24 studio with Nicolas Cage in a daring, and completely surprising role.
Hapless family man Paul Matthews (Nicolas Cage) finds his life turned upside down when millions of strangers suddenly start seeing him in their dreams. But when his nighttime appearances take a nightmarish turn, Paul is forced to navigate his newfound stardom, in this wickedly entertaining comedy from writer-director Kristoffer Borgli (Sick of Myself) and producer Ari Aster.
Interested in internet culture, virality and the phenomenon of influencers, director Kristoffer Borgli ("Self Sick") explores both the process of becoming a celebrity and the rapid loss of sympathy among the masses. While exploring these topics, he couldn't have chosen a better actor for the main role. Cage, whose face appears on thousands of memes and funny gadgets, shows here not only his outstanding comedic talent, but also his phenomenal dramatic skills. Ridiculed for the roles he chose, but also constantly staying on top, the actor got a chance to spread his wings here. Critics found "Dream Scenario," written in the spirit of Michel Gondry ("Clearly in Love"), Spike Jonze ("Being John Malkovich") and Charlie Kaufman ("Anomalisa"), irresistibly funny. Nicolas Cage himself has probably never been this funny or this touching.

cast: Nicolas Cage, Julianne Nicholson, Michael Cera

Series: Benshi’s predictions
Does anyone needs explaining what the annual Academy Awards gala, the Oscars, is about? Just in case, we would like to explain: The Oscars are a long-standing tradition of presenting film awards in many categories, celebrated at the legendary gala in Los Angeles. The greatest emotions are connected with the choice of the best film, actress/actor and film script of the past year. With the nominations announcements open discussions and speculations about potential winners in individual categories. The Oscar list includes several unique titles that are worth checking out. The nominees in all categories have been announced on January 23, but Benshi already has their picks. In February, we will present our selection of this year’s Oscar list, or rather – variations on it. We go back to the classic productions by directors topping this year’s list. Beginning with “Nebraska” (2013) by Alexander Payne, this year nominee for “Holdovers”. Then we will return to “Memento” (2000) by Christopher Nolan, whose “Oppenheimer” brok many records last year. The next film is Celine Song’s feature-length debut – “Past Lives” (2023).. The Oscar list would also be incomplete without the film “Poor Creatures” (2023) directed by Yórgos Lánthimos. At the end of the Oscar cycle, we have for you a slightly dusty gem from Martin Scorsese – “After Hours” from 1985. His “Killers of the Flower Moon” is competing with “Oppenheimer” to become the biggest winner of this year’s awards. When we start this cycle, we will know how wrong we were, but maybe we will score something. Do you, our dear viewers, have your own Oscar picks? Let’s make bets!
