Wild at Heart
A lesson in escaping our issues instead of facing them. In many ways asking the opposite question of Lynch’s other project Twin Peaks, how do we escape harsh truths and dark realities through idols, media and sex. Laura Dern’s performance as Lula shines on multiple layers as we really break into the truth behind her character and her escape into Oz. However just like the central relationship this film lands square in the middle of Oz fantasy and mock Elvis cool which can be enjoyed on multiple levels.
