Summary: Set in a small American town, Blue Velvet is a dark, sensuous mystery involving the intertwining lives of four very different individuals. The film's painful realism reminds us that we are not immune to the disturbing events which transpire in Blue Velvet's sleepy community. There is a darker side of life waiting for us all.

There was a baffling disparity in quality from scene to scene--some of it was enthralling, but some of it seemed like B-movie trash. I think it must be intentional. I'm not used to Lynch, so this is one I'll definitely revisit.
Surreal perversity at its finest. A college boy tries to solve the mystery of a severed ear he finds in a field, thus beginning a journey into the dark heart of America. Eventually, the evil is purged, and all is well . . . or is it? The new America looks like the old, but the smiles are a little false, and the colors just a little too bright.
Creepy and disturbing are the words that come to mind when I think of Blue Velvet. Dennis Hopper plays one of the sickest characters ever portrayed on screen.
Spellbinding, funny, sinister and moving. It's a good film that can provide such a range of reactions, and a great film that intensifies those feelings on repeat viewings. It's about the transition from innocence to experience. Jeffrey's dad has a stroke at the beginning, leaving him without a father figure. In steps Frank Booth, the raging id, who wants to fuck mommy. The root scene in the film is where Jeffrey spies Frank and Dorothy perverted sexual ritual.
