Lost Highway
Lost Highway very much is in a similar class to Mulholland Drive. The films themselves are very different, but the vibes are similar.. Lost Highway is a very ambitious film as it seems all David Lynch’s work is… it takes a lot of big bites, yet it manages to chew them all properly. Hypnotic, wavy, and complex are certainly words I would use to describe the film. Lynch once again asks his audience to be very patient. He doesn’t bottle feed you throughout the entire film and he trusts you to pick up on things and try to work it out yourself, while adding bits of help throughout. It feels refreshing to have a film this layered, and the director trusts you with uncovering it by yourself. I had a really good time with this one! Great way to finish off 2024.
