[請益] cross-chronological fever dream

[norge (Boston)]

問題１

文章 Review: A New 'Meistersinger' in Bayreuth Stars Wagner 中

有一段
Art, life and politics are all in the mix as the action unfolds
in a jovially surreal combination of Wagner’s late 19th century,
the libretto’s 16th, and the 20th-century Nuremberg courtroom in
which Nazi war criminals were tried. The settings (by Rebecca Ringst,
with costumes by Klaus Bruns and lighting by Franck Evin) aren't
those of the libretto, but Mr. Kosky plays the opera mostly straight,
as if the composer were sketching his intentions in the midst of a
cross-chronological fever dream.

請問最後一行中的 a cross-chronological fever dream

是什麼意思呢？

問題２

文章 What’s So Hard About Casting Indian Actors in Indian Roles? 中

When Cory philosophizes, “This land is all we got left,” Chip
excoriates his use of “we” and adds, “Only thing Native about
you is your ex-wife and a daughter you couldn’t protect.”

It’s at this moment, when Cory is reminded of his place, that
the film refuses to dance with wolves. Marriage, affinity or even
lifelong residency may change the white man, but he will always be
a foreigner in Indian Country.

段落中 the film refuses to dance with wolves

是什麼意思呢？
