Whose Quote(according to The Hollywood Reporter) and FITB?:
"The way the end of that film worked, __________’s character— he
was off with his kids, he was in his own subjective reality. He didn’t
really care anymore, and that makes a statement: perhaps, all levels of
reality are valid. The camera moves over the __________ just before it
appears to be wobbling, it was cut to black.
"I skip out of the back of the theater before people catch me, and
there’s a very, very strong reaction from the audience: usually a bit of a
groan. The point is, objectively, it matters to the audience in absolute
terms: even though when I’m watching, it’s fiction, a sort of virtual
reality. But the question of whether that’s a dream or whether it’s real
is the question I’ve been asked most about any of the films I’ve made.
It matters to people because that’s the point about reality. Reality
matters,"
