first of all, i was reading about it, but then i knew they were making a movie starring susan sarandon and suddenly i was at the set where they were filming it, which was on the beach in the sand dunes on a huge wooden stage. then, a thunderstorm started, and because i was scared i got transported to the dream for real, to watch susan sarandon be insane. she was talking to herself, running all over, and crying.

the reason i knew what was going on, as i followed her to the house across the street, is because i'd read the book. according to the story, she had been at that house and some ghostcame and started telling everyone there, with whom she was in fla. on spring break, to commit suicide,so they did. she went crazy and ran across to the beach and almost did but then didn't. and then her One True Love found her running around, and saved her, but he was poor and couldn't afford to buy her a plane ticket without selling a v. valuable book from his collection.

then the Dream Narrator (or, i dunno, i was psychic) suddenly rewound and started it over to show me not the story but what really happened, from the beginning. she didn't know the spring break guys at all--was there with her bf and they'd met the guys in a bar, and they gang-rapedher, so she murdered them all and went insane, and then went to the stage on the beach,because she was convinced she had actually committed suicide there before (when she'd had some mild thought about it?) and her soul wouldn't be able to go to heavenif she wasn't there, waiting to be taken. she's all covered with these guys' blood,you realize. anyway, she wanders down the road and meets this nice guy, and he can tell she's insane because he's a genius (???) and suddenlysir ian mckellan shows up and is like, "you need to buy a plane ticket." (once again, ???) and the guy doesn't even know that his books were worth so much. sir ian buys a gay novel called "the zoo" from the guy (which he has shelved with his other "zoo" books, inclucing a large section of children's books about animals). the guy buys a plane ticket and flies susan to a mental hospital; no one ever finds out what really happened. i wake up. not particularly scared or disturbed, either, which. huh. weird.
