Okay, is this a window or a noose? David Lynch gives you another opening to stick your head through. His tweaking with reality makes it difficult for you to feel normal.
Here you've got two young, star-crossed lovers, Sailor and "Peanut". They both have dark pasts, little corners in their memories where the light refuses to shine. Together, with hearts burning with passion, they try to chase their dreams and run from their nightmares. This intense, bizzare little romance reminded me of Mickey and Mallory from Natural Born Killers.
Nicolas Cage plays Sailor, and plays him well. Although Cage has limitations overall, he seems to excel in this type of role--a friendly, misunderstood reject. He is morally astute and courteous, but also has desperate and combative tendencies just below the surface. Plus, it's hard to take this character too seriously. He wears a snakeskin jacket, sings Elvis, and says off-the-wall things like "I had a boner with a capital O!" He does an excellent job leading you through this story filled with sex, violence, chaos, and emotion.
But Lynch is the one that will make or break this one for you. He fuses the surreal with the chaotic. He gives glimpses of humanity amongst the darkest monstrosities. He is the Wizard at intertwining the tender with the fierce, the stunning with the erotic, the funny with the sad. There are lots of impressive visuals that may entertain and confuse you. It's always a fun challenge to decipher his illusions. |
