Lost Highway Import | Year: 1997 Directed: - David Lynch Actors/Actresses: - Bill Pullman - Robert Blake - Patricia Arquette LOST HIGHWAY ¿ A confused, but brilliant, piece of work LOST HIGHWAY - A confused, but brilliant, piece of work "Very bizarre Lynchian story that makes Twin Peaks seem as easy to follow as a Sesame Street episode. Basic plot involves Pullman as a jazz musician who, believing his wife is having an affair, suddenly finds himself the main suspect in her murder." How true! This movie - seriously! - is an extremely confusing picture. I, personally, never got to the point of the movie before I had to return it. It is like caviar or oysters: an acquired taste. The plots are confusing and mysterious, the characters and confusing and mysterious, and you never know what is going on. But it sounds, looks, and feels great. The acting by Bill Pullman, Patricia Arquette and all the actors is finely done. The cinematography is creepy, and the music keeps the picture from falling in a mess. A big kudos to David Lynch for making this movie without it falling apart. But there is just one bottom line: If you like a puzzle or confusing, you will love it; if you like immediate satisfaction or some sort of ending, you will be disappointed. RECOMMEND? No and Yes. See above. A wee tad bit TOO abstract... Whereas I appreciated the abstract, progressive filmmaking of "Mulholland Drive," this movie was so abstract that it took the jump from progressive to ambaguous (yes, that's a word). In fact, I discovered, upon viewing this film, that it is actually possible to spontaneously combust from confusion. To make things worse, I made the mistake of taking a lovely young lady on a first date to see this movie (needless to say, we didn't date very long after that). Patricia Arquette's well-proportioned jumblies are the only two things I found remotely fascinating about this turd. masterpiece that proves films can be art This movie is without a shadow of a doubt a piece of art. First of if you're looking for a movie that will provide for a fun evening in front of the tv, with a clear obvious storyline that doesn't provoques you...don't buy this one. This movie isn't ment to be watched...it's ment to be experienced. I've read several reviews complaining about the confusing storyline. Whell, this movie doesn't want to tell you a story. This movie want's to make you feel something. It tries to confuse you it tries to take you out of the comfort zone and into a place of doubt and confusion. If your not open for this kind of approach don't buy this. If you can't appreciate modern art cause you can't see what the painter is trying to picture and all you see is stains and shapes...don't buy this movie cause it has the same approach. If your average hollywood film is comparable to a britney spears album, this movie is David Bowie's outside. No entertainment, no cliche's but a painting with immages and story's. If you do however can enjoy modern art, if you are open for a movie that want's to play with your mind instead of put it to sleep...get this movie. Don't watch it...experience it.
