Some dreams may fit into a classic dramatic structure-a conflict, complication, climax and denouement. In such dreams it is possible to trace unexpected connections between one scene and another, so that what follows is in some sense "caused" by the action of the dream-ego in the preceding scene. But, in general, if you think you know what a dream seems to be saying, you have missed its meaning. So with Lit Noir." Suddenly the "movies" become something more. A substrata that Max needs to penetrate to retain his own sanity. But, after all, wasn't that the original power of film noir. Perhaps, like you, the more I look at my life the more of a mystery it becomes. Like Jimmy Stewart's in Vertigo. Thank goodness I have fictional detectives to straighten it out. So here's to them, and to..."the stuff that dreams are made of."
