Vanilla Sky

Vanilla Sky (/vəˈnɪlə skaɪ/) is a term that originates from the title of a 2001 American science fiction psychological thriller film directed by Cameron Crowe. The term has since been used in various contexts, often to describe a sky that appears to be a clear, unbroken expanse of pale blue, similar to the color of vanilla ice cream.

Etymology

The term "Vanilla Sky" is a combination of the words "vanilla", a flavor derived from orchids of the genus Vanilla, primarily obtained from pods of the Mexican species, flat-leaved vanilla (V. planifolia), and "sky", the region of the atmosphere and outer space seen from the Earth. The term was popularized by the aforementioned film, which was named for a line in the song "The Sweetest Thing" by U2.
