A 1983 sci-fi film, '''''Brainstorm''''' is notable for being [[Natalie Wood]]'s last film.
Dr. Michael Brace ([[Christopher Walken]]), Lillian Reynolds (Louis Fletcher), and Michael's wife/co-worker Karen Brace (Natalie Wood), develop a device called "The Hat", which can videotape one's experiences while you're having them, then play the tape back to anyone.
Line 14:
A few scenes of the film had to be re-shot because Wood died before the film was finished. It's a really good film, even if the idea that they can do a full virtual-reality experience, video, sound, touch, smell, taste and even ''sex'', over the bandwidth available ''on a telephone'' was a big stretch of the willing suspension of disbelief.

* [[Another Man's Terror]]: When Michael plays back Lillian's final recording, he experiences everything she did when she died. And as Michael says himself, "It's a chance to take a scientific look at the scariest thing a person ever has to face."
* [[Applied Phlebotinum]]: The video "tape" used to record a full virtual reality experience, like an optical film, about four inches wide.
