i thinks its actualy sad how everybody says things about Lynch's movie like "this would be so awseome on shrooms" and "it would be tramatzing to watch this on drugs" honestly i dont think he meant for this to corrupt you or for you to do drugs with it. Im pretty sure he just wants people to think about, to think "outside the box". I feel kinda bad for him since all these people are taking his work the wrong way.
This movie has a way of making warm and/or funny scenes like this one, and then whipping it right back into creepy when they just vanish. Same with the ending of the movie.
This is some weird Lodge shit. The flashing lights are a dead giveaway. And, I will go to my grave believing that the Log Lady's husband (and that fucking Monkey who says "Judy") appears during the end credits.
@Hoopermazing hmmmm, u think so? might have to watch it again. the white lodge/black lodge, waiting room, and major briggs "mansion" are all indicators that point in a very specific direction in twin peaks.
@adgato75 As far as I'm concerned they all point to the exact same place. White Lodge, Black Lodge, Club Silencio etc... It's all the same. The only difference is the state of mind of the given Fire-Walker.
@adgato75 For me, "Lost Highway," " Twin Peaks," "Mulholland Drive," and "Inland Empire" all exist in the same, for lack of a better term, universe, and 'Twin Peaks' showed part of it... as interpreted by a small group of people confronted with the incomprehensibly alien. It's like a dream. Your mind tries to make sense out of random neurological activity by trying to force it into something familiar with a logical narrative, but it can't quite do it. It remains weird and unreal.
I 've never done any kind of illegal drugs, but after watching this movie I know what its like to drop acid. I have no idea what I just saw. Can anyone tell me in a nutshell.
This movie is NOTHING like doing acid. To even assume so is extremely ignorant. LSD is PURE amazingness. It might be comparable to an extremely high-dose BAD trip. But you do not know what dropping acid is like by simply watching this film. If anything, it may be comparable to a "delirient" drug. But NOTHING like the wonderful LSD.
I certainly agree this movie is amazing and trippy as shit, but no where near mimicing an actual drug experience.
Inland Empire is the best movie I've seen of David Lynch. It's a movie that folds ontop of itself many times but it's the best use of this technique I've seen in a movie. This scene is one of my favorites, I love the look on Laura Dern's face.
I thought it could have been a better movie if it was edited down to about 2 hours - 21/2 hours. I am a HUGE Lynch fan but this movie felt like it dragged a bit and parts were boring. Overall however fascinating film as all of Lynch's work is.
When I saw this movie they had intermission right at the end of this scene when the dancers disappear. Everything went black then they turned on the house lights that light up these rabbit head silhouettes. It all happened so quickly and suddenly, it was by far the most shocking moment I've ever endured in a theater.
But look out for "The Lost Girl" (the crying girl there watches tv) and "The Phantom" the man there says he wants an opening in the beginning, and the man the shoots in that extremely disturbing scene near the end of the movie.....they are some clues! :D
I agree.....people need to stop trying to apply logic to his work and go for the ride. It's far more enjoyable...plus, when you don't try so hard, the more you watch it, the more things just start clicking
I think a great deal of this film can be understood, but it requires a sharp film analytical mind. You shouldn't expect to have it figured out after simply having watched it through once.
Seen it 3 Months ago. I dunno why so many people hate this movie. I fucking loved it. And if ur smart u will understand the flik ;-) Anyway... brilliant film!!!
this movie is such a gorgeous mindfuck, Along with eraserhead, this is his only film that jus tdoe not let you know where its taking you at all. Lovely Surrealism
The musical scenes in the film were so cool. I guess coz the film went along quuietly with its ambient soundtrack, till a song kicks in then its all loud and happening.
Sucks living in aust. finally got to see it in the cinema last nov. now im trying to find a DVD release, so i can watch it again.
Best part of the movie. And I watched it twice.
