If I accept that a virtual world can be happy, why should I accept a real world, but real and virtual are only different in name, but there is no difference in essence?

David's difficulty in distinguishing Julie/Sofia in "Clear Dreams" symbolizes the castrated anxiety of men over women and the confusion and agnosticism of femme fatalities/innocent and kind women. The suddenly empty and extinct modern urban scene at the beginning points directly to the illusory nature of modern human society characterized by the rush of traffic. Typical psychoanalytic film text.
-
David: Where's Sofia? WHERE IS SHE?
Julie: I AM SOFIA.
-
David: Doc, once you've been driven off a bridge at 80 miles an hour, somehow you don't invite happiness in without a full body search.
