Science of Sleep

For my photography class, I made a short film based on a scene from the movie The Science of Sleep. I did a sort of re-enactment of the last scene. In the scene, the couple in the film rides off on a stuffed animal horse that comes to life in a dream sequence. The scene is neat because there a lot of crafts in the film and they come to life in this scene. My mom made a stuffed horse based on the one in the movie and I used dolls to represent the characters. 

Here's a better photo of the horse with the dolls on it. The dolls are stuffed toys of Abraham Lincoln and his wife because that was all I had. I added strings to them to make them in to puppets for my film:

Science of Sleep has a lot of crafty items in their film. 
If you haven't seen Science of Sleep, I definitely recommend it. The film plays a lot with reality and dreams and it's fun to see how they interpreted dreams in the film using crafts. Do you know any good films with crafts in it?
