Eraserhead
Add this to the parenthood PSA list along with Alien, The Coffee Table, If I Had Legs I’d Kick You, and most novels. This was a vibe, a mood piece, something right up my alley.
It doesn’t connect on the emotional level that much of Twin Peaks hits but it registers on a certain frequency of understanding. I couldn’t tell you what anything means but in a much more real way I feel like I understood it all perfectly clearly. Babies are freaky, marriage is freaky, in-laws, neighbors, your own sense of self, everyone is a freak.
