The films the hosts said they were tied to, which the two lists below run through too: Sixth Avenue Heartache (Wallflowers video) (1996); Vanilla Sky (2001); Rolling Thunder Revue: A Bob Dylan Story by Martin Scorsese (2019). Count them as writer (1 film), composer (3 films) instead.
Draws on
What the speakers say they, or a film of theirs, drew on. Each is a speaker's account: “the maker said so” when they report the maker's own words, “the host's read” when the read is theirs.

lineage (lineage) · through Vanilla Sky (2001), which they were tied to as album cover recreated in a montage:
Abre los ojos (Open Your Eyes) ⇒ Vanilla Sky (the host's read).
Vanilla Sky is nearly the same story as the Spanish original, except the hero is a magazine magnate friends with Spielberg.
“So the film is actually pretty much exactly the same as Abri Lozojos, except for the main character of that movie is not a magazine magnate who's friends with Steven Spielberg.”

The ending follows the original beat for beat, down to the jump and the 'open your eyes' last line.
“Yeah, again, it's how Abri Lo Sojos works to a T down to him jumping and open your eyes, like being on last lines.”

The Spanish film has the same beats, and the protagonist's face looks even worse in it.
“But it's like the movie's beats are exactly the same down to the, you know, crucial moment of him like lying in the gut.”

Cruise adapted Abre los Ojos into Vanilla Sky, a bold move he does not make today.
“adapted Aubrey Los Ojos into Vanilla Sky”
