A movie within a dream

i had a dream about a man I had a relationship with, who chose not to continue that relationship. I'll refer to him as the Man or M.

In the dream, M and I were walking down a road, we came to a fork. i was going to move across country, i think. and so we parted ways. then i remembered that he had given me a movie that he had had made. i decided to watch it, and my family was there watching it with me. it was an animated movie, very beautifully drawn, well edited (i remember thinking that he had done a really good job of editing it).

The movie was a thinly disguised retelling of our relationship, only he was a dark haired girl. I remember feeling suspicious, but as soon as i saw the red haired man, I knew it was us. i blushed and hoped no one in my family knew. in the movie i watched, the girl told the man how she had regretted not being with him, how she still loved him and wanted to be with him. I wrote down some questions i wanted to ask M about the dream.

then later on, I saw M. I felt very guarded, wary of opening up this conversation again. I told him I saw the movie and his whole face lit up as if to say "oh! you finally got it!" He had given it to me a while ago and i never said anything. and then he said "and...?" waiting for me to make the first move again. i was irritated and said "so what was up with the main characters?" and asked a question pretty much like "what are you trying to tell me?" i felt i deserved an answer, once and for all.

and the dream ended with that. me not knowing, looking into his brown eyes and smiling face, revealing nothing.
