Vanilla Sky Ending: Every Frame Explained
10. Thomas Tipp
Timothy Spall has a small but memorable role in the film as David's lawyer and family friend Thomas Tipp, who drunkenly tells him to watch out for the aforementioned Seven Dwarfs.
Tipp appears briefly in David's final memories, both as he dispenses that urgent advice to David early in the film, and also from a scene actually cut from the final release, where Tipp can be seen interacting warmly with a boy assumed to be a younger David.
Given that Tipp is effectively the only of his father's associates that David trusts, it's fitting that he retains a small but important place in his mind.
