Lost Highway

Fred: "I like to remember things my own way"> Cop: "What does that mean?"> Fred: "How i remember them, not necessarily how they happened"First want to say going into this after watching the first 3 Toy Story’s was an interesting experience to say the least.  I think the best way to describe this film would be to say it’s a well crafted psychological trap! The first half of the movie feels slow as it descents into dread and uncertainty. Then the film splits, identity splits.  The horror of this film isn’t violent (for the most part) its dissociation… jealousy moulding into paranoia. The Mystery Man drifts through scenes like an unseen truth. He doesn’t shout… he simply exists what makes it so much more horrifying and creepy!  Visually this movie is a nightmare (in the best kind of way) the darkness often swallows the frame. Faces often appear and drift from shadows. The highway becomes some kind of metaphor of endlessness, directionless as it’s only illuminated by the headlights of the vehicle… this movie probably has some of the greatest camera work I have ever witnessed! I believe this films not meant to be solved… it’s meant to be experienced.
