Un examen des séquences oniriques dans des comédies musicales permettra d'éclairer le débat sur la distinction entre les rêves dans les films et les films oniriques. Surréalistes et classiques hollywoodiens s’approprièrent la psychanalyse freudienne dans leurs approches des rêves cependant ces appropriations divergeaient radicalement.


Les surréalistes subvertissaient le style réaliste classique en faisant des rêves le modèle de leur « réalité », et cette subversion fut mise en pratique dans les quelques films qu’ils avaient réalisés. Dans le cinéma classique hollywoodien, les composantes du langage cinématographique furent mises en avant dans le but de rendre compte de l'étrangeté des rêves et leurs écarts par rapport à la « réalité » de la diégèse des films.

Dès 1915, ces films connurent une baisse de régime considérable avant de redevenir plus nombreux à partir de la fin des années 1930, et ce, grâce à la popularisation de la psychanalyse. As for the rest of the ladies, we can only hope that they found greater success elsewhere.Les films ayant recours à des séquences de rêves étaient particulièrement nombreux au cours de la période transitoire. Go to her Facebook page should you desire to know more. She now goes by the name Babydoll and is finally pursuing a solo singing career. She continued doing session work and writing songs, and eventually was signed as a songwriter to producer/songwriter ( Monifah's "Touch It") Jack Knight's company. Two years later she was the driving force behind another girl group, 4 Kast, but they too failed to make it big and only released one album. Kia returned to what she had been doing before joining Oscar, session work, most notably as the featured vocalist on rapper Akinyele's naughty " Put It In Your Mouth" in 1996. As for the girls, I can find nothing on any of them but Kia Jeffries. The Characters would go on to greater success producing hits for acts like Johnny Gill, Brandy, Brownstone, Eternal and even SWV. If you ask me, they should have released the song "Give A Little More" as their next single, as it's house- ish vibe was refreshing and different. But the follow up, the ballad "Keep Touching Me", didn't get more than a promo release and the group was lost in the sea of girl groups.

The single "I'm Calling You (Do-Po- Liddle-La-Le-Yeah)" did get some attention, perhaps because of the multi-racial angle, and was a minor R&B hit. They enlisted Sally Ries, Debbie Lewis, Hiromi Kuroiwa and Kia Jeffries to realize their vision. The Characters obviously realized that they needed a different angle to make their group stand out of the pack, and the multi-racial aspect was indeed different. They were part of the first wave that utilized the 'New Jack Swing' sound, and with other similar girl groups like TLC and SWV debuting that same year, the term 'New Jill Swing' emerged. While The Characters had had some success the previous couple of years with producing some R&B hits, this was their first real foray into conceiving and managing an act and producing an entire album. Oscar was a multi-racial girl group based in the US and brought together by production duo Charles Farrar and Troy Taylor, better known as The Characters.
