This is one of my favorite midnight flix.
I see the film as a meditation on insecurity and the fear of responsibility,
Who here has seen it? Your thoughts?

One of my favorites. I got the DVD early last year and love it to death. Interpretations on this movie are mixed and varied--everyone sees something different. I think it's a chronicle of the fear of fatherhood. I still think it's one of Lynch's best works.

"In heaven...everything is fine"

i looooove this movie. it's a crime i don't own it on DVD!

I just watched Lost Highway for the first time last night (didnt like it), but I did really enjoy Blue Velvet.

On a side note--I heard that P is a big fan.

Anxiety said:

They did it here in Detroit too last weekend! They also covered "Head On" by The Jesus and Mary Chain

Zencowboy said:

They opened with it! Kim Deal sang the lead, which was nice, cuz I've only ever heard it sung by Frank Black.

Wow! We didn't get "Head On", but I was happy they did the Eraserhead song.

In heaven everything is fine
In heaven everything is fine
In heaven everything is fine
You've got your good thing
And I've got mine.

In heaven everything is fine
In heaven everything is fine
In heaven everything is fine
You've got your good thing
And you've got mine.

I've seen it a couple of times.


That's some F@CKED up shit.

I have a love/hate relationship with David Lynch. But that doesn't mean I don't worship his ass as a filmmaker. Some of his content bugs me, but then again, Mullholland Drive is just about the greatest film I've ever seen and if I could have sold my soul to the devil to make that film, well, I woulda been tempted.

Eraserhead? CLASSIC!
Blue Velvet =
Wild at Heart =
Alphabet, Grandmother & short films =
Twin Peaks =
Straight Story=
Mulholland Drive=
Elephant Man=

never saw Lost Highway not to mention Dune

how dare you diss Twin Peaks!! FWWM was the perfect explenation for all that happened on the show...and then some.

and Straight Story will go down as a poetic classic years down the road....

yay.....

I'm just over the whole Twin Peaks thing but it's too boring for me to explain.

sosgemini said:

Amen!! "Straight Story" was a brilliant piece of work. It's unquestionably Lynch's quietest film, but also one of his most perceptive. You don't need the Lynch craziness to still have his brillaince. Richard Farnsworth did an amazing job.
