Re: Is anybody willing to explain Blue Velvet to me?

The movie opens with beautiful shots of Small Town USA, and then the camera takes us under the grass to show the nasty bugs that exist under the impossibly beautiful town. This theme stood out the most to me watching the film - is that what you mean in your comment about "love/sex/violence"?

I don't you should necessarily look for an "explanation" in a movie like this. It's not a whodunit. Well, it is ... but figuring out whodunit is not the point of the film. ;-) I think the best thing to do is to watch it again and see what hits you then.

You know, film critic Roger Ebert really hated this film. You can find his review of Blue Velvet at www.suntimes.com/ebert
