Has anyone seen this? David Lynch is pretty great. Tell me what your favorite line was. As you can see from my sig, those were my fav lines.
what is the name of that goddamn song, blue clown on the sand man, sandy coloured faced clown or something? help me bastard! pour the fucking beer man.
I love Blue Velvet! Lynch is great. He's... insane. Check out Eraserhead if you haven't seen that yet. Frank - What kind of beer you drink, neighbor? Jeffery - Heineken Frank - Heineken? Fuck that shit! Pabst Blue Ribbon!! hahah... gotta love PBR!
I love Eraserhead, I love Mulholland Drive, I hate Blue Velvet... I just don't get it. Dennis Hopper was cool, he is always good, but the movie overall was pretty lame in my opinion.
Both Blue Velvet and Wild at Heart are classics to anyone who treasures the fine art of moviemaking. I like the way they show the hippocisy of people, before Lynch unveils the rot that lies within. Sometimes he misses the mark by being too surreal and I'm sure that there's a lot of men out there with goatee beards that pretend they understand his subliminal/esoteric/bambaclat psyche. And some women, too(minus the beards). I have seen this guy interviewed and he seems to be a sandwich short of a picnic(bit like me), but that doesn't make him any less a great artist. The best advice on watching his movies, is to relax, make something nice that you like:X, and don't try to understand the movie, but just let the images and sound filter in. Best bit of the movie was Hopper with the oxygen mask crying:"Baby wants to fuuuuck!" Weird nasty shit, man. Classic.
Moholland drive was awesome. And yea, Blue Velvet does get a bit too weird at times, but it has it's shining moments, like "SUAVE MAN! YOU ONE SUAVE MOTHER FUCKER!" As for Lynch being short of a sandwich, I don't doubt that. Most artists are a bit 'mad'. At least most of the true artists, and that's how you can tell the fake from the real.
i dont think you're sopposed to try and make sense with lynch's work. i think the way to truely appreciate his work is to see it as you would you see it... meaning to look at each individual scene as say you would with a piece of art like a photo or painting and not to see it as any old movie.
