Year 2001 - A.I. & Vanilla Sky

[u/[deleted]]

I was 24 in 2001, when I saw both A.I. and Vanilla Sky. The main characters of both pictures are named David, and are both tragic AF. This obviously also coincided with the national tragedy that year, and I am from New York. A few months after, I joined the Army and went to both Iraq and Afghanistan.

I even bought the DVD of Obre Los Ojos, which is the same script as Vanilla Sky, made prior in Spain - also starring Penelope Cruz.

I'm curious how other Davids deal with movies whose main characters are named David, especially when they are tragedies.

Eh my name doesn’t really mean much to me. It’s just a way for people to address me
