In Dream Life, Dansereau gives her characters the opportunity to explore their desires through this mix of fantasy, flashback, montage, and conversations over cigarettes and coffee. Go to Full Review Nathaniel Muir AIPT 11/05/2022
Dansereau uses subtle commentary to progress her tale of women’s liberation and hope. Its relatively lighthearted tone sets its apart from other feminist works. Dream Life is a unique film that earned its place in feminist film history. Go to Full Review Lee Jutton Film Inquiry 11/04/2022
For the last few decades, Dansereau has been toting Dream Life around to women’s studies classes in order for it to be seen. Hopefully, this lovely new restoration will help the film and its pioneering director receive the appreciation they deserve. Go to Full Review Read all reviews
