Saw this movie on big screen on wednesday this week. What a movie!
I want to talk about it with anyone who'd like to share his or her thoughts on it. Maybe there is nothing to explain or to interpretate but it impressed a lot and I can't keep it to myself...
I really can't make an interpretation for the WHOLE movie. For example, I saw "Lost Highway", which appears to me as a collage of subconscious parts of at least one mind or the minds of the people that are involved in the story and these parts come to life as sceneries or persons...maybe.
And I saw "Blue Velvet" which is pretty easy to take, although it scared me a lot...almost the same feeling that I got after watching one night the first "Dogma" movie (what's the English title? In German it's "Das Fest" - "The fest/party/...")...that was the SECOND time I watched, but this time, like it was for "Blue Velvet" I was watching it alone...a feeling of deep loneliness, a mixture of fear and depression...
...concerning "Inland Empire" I felt a little like this at some points...the pictures and the language are so powerful...it's like he (Lynch) took the whole crap of one's subconscience (maybe a collective "hurt womanhood" ... and "manhood", too?) and formed it into the shape of a surrealistic nightmare which basically includes transformations ... historical, interpersonal, perspectivally ...
a movie in a movie in a movie in a mind of a mind in a mind?
Your thoughts! I'm pretty curious...
