Caught in a mind-bending loop of paranoia, infidelity, and danger, both the characters and the audience are searching for clarity. In typical Lynch fashion, this film defies a simple explanation or interpretation, but excels at creating a nightmarish mood.

More feverish, primal and sexual than Mulholland Dr. but still very much the same film in many ways. In this case a grief dream/nightmare fuelled by male incompetence and psychogenic fugue.

Starts out creepy, then goes full on Lynch and then... becomes something entirely different. Despite abandoning the mystery almost entirely for quite some time there is still enough intrique and suspense to keep you on your toes. Great perfomances throughout.

Lynch creates dreamworlds for his characters. This one gets lost in the praise for some of his more well known work, but like all of his films, it will reward multiple viewings.

Instead of guessing what it is supposed to mean, wouldn't it be more productive to look at what the movie actually is? We may discover that the essence of the story is the two most generic noir motives: "a dame to kill for" and "a wrongfully accused", both of which are extremely schematic and underdeveloped. The endless praises yet imply the very debatable claim: that simplistic mediocrity of the plot's comprehensible parts is completely redeemed by the coarse surrealistic sews here and there.

What works, Lynch did better in better movies. Otherwise, it's bloated, commercial, and borderline hack. Yet somehow confusing and overly weird? ( ilked the weirdness though) Hell, if the dialog didn't seem like it was written by a space alien, I'd think it was a Lynch ripoff. Nacho finest hour, Mr. Lynch.

Top badass moment? Mr. Eddy dealing with the tailgater. As the driver of a speed-limited van that people in cars think it’s their right to overtake, I can relate to his indignant fury. (For information, Range Rover drivers are the worst.) This is a movie about the consequences of losing your satnav, which was made before civilian GPS systems were in widespread use. It also features a character who looks like a cross between Dave Vanian and Dave Greenfield. No cats, chainsaws or decapitations.

I'll be upfront with the idea that I'm not sure I picked up everything on my first watch, but even so, Lost Highway was an experience. I think the actors did incredible jobs with their roles, and as my first Lynch film, I can say that I had a great, if not challenging time. Sometimes I need that challenge in my life, and Lost Highway delivered on all fronts.
