The latter half of the story can't be an opium fueled dream. How does Noodles know about future fashions, vehicles, and The Beatles? Beyond that though, "it was all a dream" is just a lot less interesting to me than "life is shitty so we indulge in fantasy to get through it", especially from a filmmaker defined by cinematic mythmaking.

How does Noodles go to jail as a child in the 1900's and come out in the 1930's as a fully functional adult? He shouldn't know how to drive, how to dress fashionable, where anything is, who anybody are, etc.

Is he fully functional? He seems pretty emotionally stunted and simple. I also assume Max helped him early on with his clothes and shit like that.

And we know Noodles is into book reading . Maybe he read HG Wells and envisioned a future where 1968 looks like 1983.
