In Reply to: What the hell did I just see? posted by Sean Jean on April 6, 2004 at 05:34:30:
I loved Mulholland Drive, easily my favorite movie in years, and for me it resonated completely. Like a perfectly constructed dream that uses symbolism and rhythmic effects to express concepts far more efficiently and organically than a narrative ever could, I was not left with any feeling of inadequate understanding or a puzzle left unsolved. Personally, I feel that Lynch has come a long way since Blue Velvet. He's probably my favorite American director right now.Yet Lost Highway went completely over my head. I still loved it for the imagery, but I did not understand it.
Eraserhead is loads of fun. When I was in Paris in 1994-5, Eraserhead was the only movie that played in the theaters every single week, like a ritual. I guess it's their version of The Rocky Horror Picture Show. One of the many reasons why Paris just feels right. There was a wild analysis of Eraserhead in Film Quarterly that really pulled out all the stops on the symbolism.
