David Lynch's Wacky Cigarette Ad

What the hell did I just see?

(shakes head)

i thought smoking is not allowed in the red room :D

the way they did it was the actors performed as if they were backwards, then they reversed it and all the non-human parts are backwards. But since the actors were purposely being backwards, they look like they're normal.

What is so odd about this video is that it appears to be backward but it is not.

I rendered it in VirtualDub and played it backwards, and it still seems backwards - it is very strange, I think this whole thing was acted backwards in some parts and forward in other, so that you really can't tell how it "should" look, or what the plot is. But, this is David Lynch.

If you have the ability to watch it backwards, try it. It's very odd.

If you haven't seen Twin Peaks, you should watch a famous scene (the episode is called Cooper's Dream) where the main character is having a dream - and in the dream he's sort of having a conversation with these people who are talking backwards, however it's played in reverse so it sounds "normal". It's the strangest thing I've ever seen.
