October 20, 2009Bizarre film noir about a jazz saxophonist and his wife who begin receiving mysterious video tapes from someone who appears to be filming them while they sleep. Typically Lynchian, surrealist film kicks off with one of the creepiest set ups ever filmed, then trashes that story a...( read more)

April 22, 2009"lost highway" is actually not as incomprehesible as most people think by first-time viewing, and it's probably the most "linear" storytelling of lynch, a zigsaw awaiting to be jointed together. from my perception, it's about a night-club jazz musician's suspicion upon his wife w...( read more)

April 13, 2009The more I see of David Lynch the more I'm convinced that he has little or no regard for the space/time continuum. Whether or not all the pieces of Lost Highway 'fit together' is a subject better suited for a film studies class than a Flixster review. All I know is that ...( read more)

January 7, 2009New favorite movie. Will figure out exactly why soon enough (besides all the obvious that many others have probably already mentioned). After a few more absorbs and reading the reviews already up, I'll add my highlights and "oops we missed this" commentary.

December 7, 2008The O.J Simpson case through the deceitful mind of David Lynch. A powerful, twisted, devilish jigsaw. eerie Robert Blake.

November 17, 2009Everything about this movie just was the right kind've bizarre that David Lynch excels at. The narrative is split in the most awkward way possible, which really worked. Who else would've thought a human melting in solitary confinement? The acting was great as usual. David Lynch a...( read more)

November 1, 2009Really good. Judge Lynch by his own standards: he's not overrated, not underrated--his films just offer an alternative to people who are bored with formulaic crap.

October 25, 2009Bill Pullman is excellent in this one. But the David Lynch schtick runs pretty thin for me here. It seems too easy to spin a weird, non-linear tale if you're not going to bother giving any kind of reason for major plot points. Lots of style. But I call BS on the lack of subst...( read more)

September 28, 2009Okay, I'm confused. I want to watch it again, because I'm intrigued, but Robert Blake's so creepy!

October 5, 2008I thought it was very interesting . In fact I liked it so much, i ordered a used DVD, from Amazon.com. Patricia Arquette is a great actress in my eyes, anyway.

January 28, 2008For me the movie is great, like a dream. But there is one song missed in the motion picture soundtack. It's in the final part when they make love on a desert, lightened by a beam from carlights, in slow motion. If you know who performs it and what's the number title, please let me know, mp3:)?

May 28, 2007Just a little note... love love LOVE the scene where Patrica Arquette is getting out of the car to Lou Reed's "This Magic Moment". Also, "Apple of Sodom" is my favorite Manson song ever.
