Footage from What Dreams May Come combined with Sigur Ros. Wonderful visual fantasy tracking a man's quest to find his wife in Heaven and Hell.
What Dreams May Come is a 1998 dramatic film, starring Robin Williams, Cuba Gooding Jr., and Annabella Sciorra. The movie is based on the 1978 novel of the same name by Richard Matheson, and was directed by Vincent Ward. The title comes from a famous line in Hamlet's soliloquy in Act 3, scene 1 (To be, or not to be), specifically, "For in that sleep of death what dreams may come / When we have shuffled off this mortal coil." Scenes in the movie, as well as the plot outline in the novel, contain several allegorical references to Dante Alighieri's 1308 epic poem The Divine Comedy. It won an Academy Award for its visual effects. It was also nominated for the Academy Award for Best Art Direction.
