Well, did the Amanda Seyfried character really go to the church and did
the Ethan Hawke character really take off his suicide vest? I mean, at
what point should any part of a film be considered "real" or not?
The writer/director must have loved
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jacob%27s_Ladder_(1990_film) since you don't
find out until the very end of the film that the entire film sequence was
just a dream before he died in an army hospital.
