IMBD lists the plot for Inception as: Best friends work together as aspiring young architects on the rise, their relationship complicated by a recent inception. Corporations have developed a technology to enter dreams to extract information from certain peoples’ heads. A CEO (Leonardo DiCaprio) enters dreams and things begin to escalate.
After watching the trailer, I’m looking forward to this movie. Having architects in the central roles with Rand nowhere to be found is a plus. I’m also liking the idea of architecture and memory playing off of each other. It is reminiscent of the Situationist ideas of drift and the city, and the idea of memory, specifically the city as a place of memory, has always intrigued me. Here’s to hoping for Inception to deliver.
