Has anyone seen this film yet? It is currently screening in Cambridge, MA for a few weeks. I think it will be out in most areas of the country after the new year.

I don't want to spoil too much, so I'm not posting a review of this film. But I'll just say that it's very brilliant, very Lynch, very emotionally-driven, and probably nothing like any film you'll see this year.

And it's about actresses.

If you've seen it, I'd like to hear your interpretations.

    I saw it last week (followed by a screening of Eraserhead in the same cinema!)

    A 3hr headfuck of a film. Fantastic to watch and def. needs repeat viewing. Makes Mulholland Dr. look as complex as a Home & Away episode.

    Haven't seen it yet, but I've seen the previews - fantastic creepy Cindy Sherman inspired stills that I can't get out of my head. I'm trying to not build it up, though I'm really looking forward to it. :)

    Love David Lynch's films.
    The Straight Story is my favourite - though not one of his typical flicks.
