12 Best Movie Dream Sequences (And What They Mean)

7. Trainspotting

What happens: In the feel-good hit of summer 1996 (from Danny Boyle, who solely directs feel-good hits), Ewan McGregor's junkie Renton decides he's going to get clean, once and for all. Sadly, going cold turkey is not as delicious-midnight-snack-on-Christmas Day as it sounds, and during his kicking of the habit he hallucinates the baby of a friend who died whilst the parents were busy shooting up. A baby who can crawl along the ceiling and actually looked a lot like an animatronic, if I'm honest. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GgeDh1WCyeM What it means: "To see a baby in your dream signifies innocence, warmth and new beginnings." Nope. "To dream that a baby is walking or dancing refers to the potential and possibilities that life has in stored for you. The future looks bright. The dream may also be a metaphor that you need to take baby steps in your relationship, toward your goal, in a work project or whatever undertaking. If you have a baby in real life, then the dream is a reflection of your hopes for that baby." Also nope. "To see or talk to the dead in your dream forewarns that you are being influenced by negative people and are hanging around the wrong crowd. This dream may also be a way for you to resolve your feelings with those who have passed on." There we go.
