It's episode 278...and she locked away a secret, deep inside herself, something she once knew to be true... but chose to forget. Inception (2010) tells the story of Cobb and his band of extractors--thieves who use dream-sharing technology to break into the subconscious minds of their targets and steal information. Cobb has a dark history and lives in exile from his family, but when a mysterious client offers him the chance to rebuild his life, the opportunity is too good to turn down. In order to succeed, Cobb and his team must successfully implant an organic idea within their subject's mind. This process, thought by some to be impossible, is known as Inception. We break down one of the best and most-theorised-about science fiction blockbusters of all time; ponder spinning corridors, impossible staircases and dreams within dreams; ask ourselves if Christopher Nolan could probably do with reigning it in a bit; and question whether a simpler option might be to just move your kids to Paris. All of which leads to one question: How would you survive? Whatever happens, one thing's for sure: You mustn't be afraid to dream a little bigger, darling. Next time we're diving into more mindscapes with the Jennifer Lopez horror vehicle The Cell (2000).
