Movie Summary
Based on the novel by Ursula K. LeGuin, The Lathe of Heaven is a special-effects lovers smorgasbord. Set in futuristic Portland, Oregon, the film stars Bruce Davidson as a man prone to fantastic dreams. When these dreams start coming true, only Davidson at first is aware of it: my dreams changed everything that came before them-and nobody knows it but me! Well, thats not entirely true. Davidsons psychiatrist Kevin Conway proves beyond doubt that Davidsons dreams are coming true. Unfortunately, Conway is of an avaricious nature, and he fully intends to harness Davidsons subconscious for his own gain-all the while convincing himself that hes doing it for the good of Mankind. Advertised as PBS first major made-for-TV movie, The Lathe of Heaven premiered January 9, 1980. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
