One more:

Double Indemnity 1944 (if you like your Noir) - Billy Wilder/Raymond Chandler, based on a crime novel by James M Cain (he also wrote The Postman Always Rings Twice and Mildred Pierce).

Some believe the writing and film to be a masterpiece.

The Wizard of Oz (1939).  A blunt force trauma induced coma that’s loaded with strange characters and fantastic imagery; including an opium induced awakening within the coma itself (not to inadvertently revisit another thread… a dream within a dream? Perhaps Nolan was influenced by this one, lol).

… anyways, a timeless classic that I find it truly surreal on many levels.

Try reading the rest of his books... the WoO is just the beginning. Ol' Baum was definitely on something. Could have been opium.

Definitely way out there, maybe Lewis Carroll was his supplier, lol. I’m not too familiar with (Baum’s) other works; I’ll definitely have to see what I can dig up online, cheers!
