This I will give him - his use of music in films is second only to John Hughes as far as modern film making goes.
I was not fan of Vanilla Sky...I thought his idea for a remake was bad from the beginning..I thought he was trying to be a little Kubrik and it just came off as an unfinished project made to appeal to the dick wads here in L.A. who like to talk about film like they are some sort of high itellect hipster
