Blue Velvet is one of the great late 20th century American movies.

It's so good even Peter Greenaway wishes he'd made it.

  ...see Blue Velvet over again. nd again. I watch it at least twice a year. And this is from someone who can't tolerate slasher flicks, modern horror films, TV violence etc.
  
  It is strong stuff, not realistic of course, but a highly personal and expressive vision. I do think Lynch is one of our greatest filmmakers. The dream imagery and dark side of America are explored better in BV than in almost any other American film I can think of. I find it magical - dark, but magical.
