I’ve been thinking about the PBS movie of Ursula LeGuin’s “The Lathe of Heaven” a lot recently. It’s about a man (George Orr) who’s dreams change reality, and the doctor who tries to use his dreams to “fix” the world. The scene below happens after the doctor suggests that George dream about overpopulation:
