That's fucking crazy, man.
>>71866883
is this what have you by lynch. havent seem it yet
>>71866928
Its from Lost Highway.
Kinda looks like Hellraiser. Except he's got all his skin.
My least favorite Lynch film desu.
It's probably the only one I would call Trying too hard.
>>71867205
All Bill Pullman scenes were 10/10 tho and that end scene is one of my fav movie endings

We've met before, haven't we?
>>71868514
Yes
>>71866883
I just realized this recently: if you pause right before Dick Laurent is shot, you see some creepy practical face getting blown up.
Is like only 1 frame so is very quick to miss if not paying attention.
>>71866883
Is this the most excessive Lynch has ever been?
POETRY
Does anyone else buy the theory that all of David Lynch's films take place in the same universe?
Mulholland Drive = Inland Empire
Lost Highway's Mystery Man is from Twin Peak's Red Room
>>71868596
Nice find.
>>71868723
In this case: the Mystery Man possessed Fred to murder his wife in the same way Bob possessedLeland to murder his daughter
Just a theory I came up with considering the same red curtain is both in Twin Peaks and Lost Highway.
>>71868723
He's just taking his ideas and implement in his other works. That is normal and happens with virtually every director.
>>71868829
Also: both Twin Peaks and Lost Highway deal with brothels/sex which enraged Fred andLeland
>>71868836
Yeah probably. Even the car being red (screaming bloody murder literally before Fred murders his wife). It's just brilliant when directors pay so much attention to detail to really tell their story using reoccurring themes.
>>71868836
>>71868907
Red curtains are also seen in Inland Empire.
He did actually -say- Lost Highway and Twin Peaks take place in the same world, didn't he?
Actually, in a broader sense, I think they all are taking place in the same world. The real world, as envisioned by David Lynch.
>>71866883
>Good morning
wow look at all that red
>that terribly fake gore, blood and mannequin
>>71868978
>The real world, as envisioned by David Lynch.
I like the sound of that
>>71868942
>He did actually -say-
Whatever he says. He's making surrealism, and he will tell you things to confuse you even more, so you watch more of his films. That's his game.
>>71868723
>all of David Lynch's films take place in the same universe
In the grand design, women were drawn from a different set of blueprints. There's a place where no woman can see. They are repelled by it, terrorized. It is said a man will come one day and find in the gift of the drug his inward eye. This is damn good melange.
>>71869048
Take a look at this! This is no accident to make these 2 images so similar with the red and both walking down a hall
>>71869048
In any case, I take this viewpoint. >>71868978
I think it's healthy to get out of the whole "canon", "same universe" mindset. There might not be any separate fictional universes in his work, just his vision of -the- world.
>>71869130
Well every single film he makes incorporates "dream-like elements" so is his message trying to tell us that we all live the same kind of dream, hence why there are similarities with his work? such as you can see here clearly
>>71869103
>>71868829
Maybe not that they are taking place in same universe exactly but that all our nightmares and dreams are the same among us. idk
>>71869196
>same universe
This is just the concept I'm trying to tell you to avoid. His films are set in our world. Not on Mars or Middle Earth. It's the non-fictional world we live in, filtered through his imagination and imbued with his ideas. My point might not be coming off as clearly as I intended, I really don't know how to explain it any differently.
>>71869278
That's exactly what I got with Eraserhead. It's a basic story set in the real world about a guy who has to look after his mutant infected son - whilst throughout the movie he enters dream worlds whilst coming back to reality and then going in them again.
Same could be said about Lost Highway. Is about a man who murdered his wife due to being angry with her being involved in a porno ring and after this: he is trying to make sense of what he has done hence all the bizzareness - him turning into a younger person halfway thru; re-imagining how he met his wife etc.
After all: Lynch did say in an interview that he based Lost Highway on the OJ Simpson trial, believing that OJ was guilty and how a man could be able to commit a horrific murder and then go golfing the next day like it didn't happen. Heck even the ending to Lost Highway with the car chase is reminiscent of the OJ Simpson freeway chase.

>he is trying to make sense of what he has done hence all the bizzareness
That, and the fact that he's, well, gone mad.
>>71869375
i don't think it's a mutant baby or anything abnormal, just a baby born with some kind of illness, the way we see the baby is how henry sees it. everything is seen from henry's perspective, the brick wall is not really a brick wall just an obvios symbol to show that he feels trapped, henry's hair is not just some goofy haircut, it screams at you THIS MAN IS FUCKING FRIGHTENED OF EVERYTHING, it'so cartoonish, classic lynch. henry is scared of adult responsibilities (having a wife, a kid, etc.). also, my favorite little moment in the movie is the elevator sequence, when the elevator doors take forever to close, again, i interpreted it from henry's viewpoint, dude is an anxious wreck, i can just imagine him thinking to himself while waiting for the doors to close, saying "come on, come on... oh god, this takes forever, come on." in reality, the doors probably closed after two seconds...

I always thought that Eraserhead takes place in the far future or after WW3.
Is she okay?
Also why did she cheat on him?
>people interpret Lynch films literally at total face value
These movies aren't even extremely arthouse or something, come on guys. Of fucking course it's not a mutant baby, how dumb are you people. This guy is the only one who gets it >>71871782
Why did Wild At Heart have to age so badly?
>>71872246
Because you touch yourself at night
