2 Vanilla Sky

Since his 1980s debut, Tom Cruise has enjoyed a long career with many hits. He was seen in 2004 as the headlining Vanilla Sky for Cameron Crowe, and Paramount.

It was a huge success financially, earning more than $200 million at the box office. Although it offered something different from other movies of the time, the idea itself wasn’t original. It was actually a remake of the 1997 Spanish movie Open Your Eyes. Penelope Cruz was also featured in both versions.
