Blue Velvet

i understand its a david lynch film, but these types of films really dont sit well with me. they just threw away the ear plot not even a third of the way into the movie. rape scenes are too much for me in any movie. it was my main problem with A Clockwork Orange as well

9/10 It’s a strange world

This film was insane. The first act of this movie felt very cozy and safe to a point where the complete tonal shift in the second act really shocked me and took me by surprise. The plot was engaging throughout with interesting twists and a great ending

Ich hab mittlerweile festgestellt, dass ich nicht wirklich ein David Lynch Fan bin. Ich mochte Blue Velvet mehr als Mullholland Drive, bin jedoch eher zwiegespalten. Lynch ist ein Fan einer sehr langsamen Erzählweise was glaube ich einfach nicht mein Geschmack trifft.

8.5/10

a remarkable film that is able to tell a largely coherent story with lynch’s trademark surrealism and assorted scenes that feel nearly dreamlike; the symbolism and writing remains strong throughout while incredible music and performances heighten the experience to another level

Cerebral & distinct, David Lynch’s strong suit. Most definitely a film that requires multiple viewings, much like his later film ‘Mulholland Drive’. Very good performances throughout but it’s the direction that shines. It’s unique & completely fascinating to see how it works out
