In the mid-1980s she gained critical acclaim for roles in films by Peter Bogdanovich (Mask) and David Lynch (Blue Velvet, Wild at Heart). Dern's starring role in Blue Velvet appeared to be a breakthrough but her next notable film took almost four years to be released, Wild at Heart, also directed by Lynch. Dern's affiliation with Lynch has continued with her recent role in Inland Empire.

Rehabilitating prisoners, helping the disabled AND cute furry animals - if this film were a charity it would be ringing the tills with cash. Still even my hard-bitten self got moved by some of the moments here.
