Movies alone

"They say, fucker been sewin' some kinda shit" Perhaps the best line in Inland Empire, the movie I'm watching for the second time ever just now. It's not the same on my tv after seeing it at the Music Box with David Lynch there. However, it's still pretty fucking amazing. I don't get the haters. Ok obviously if you don't like Lynch you'll hate it, but the Lynch fanatics that hate it? I don't get it. It's quintessential Lynch, and its like what Mullholland Drive and Lost Highway couldn't be. I've had enough wine to kill a cow.

Laura Dern's monologues to the mostly silent man (a detective? a shrink?) in the glasses are some of the best performances I've ever seen.

I also just realized that at the beginning of Eraserhead, I'm pretty sure Lynch has you set the brightness and contrast on your screen, yes? He does on Inland Empire too, but I can't remember any other DVDs he's had me do that on. It's so pretentious yet so totally not at the same time.
