Review of Blue Velvet (1986) by Brendan C — 03 Jun 2010
It seemed appropriate to watch this again for obvious reasons. Obviously one of Hopper's finest roles, but it's the tense nature of a number of the scenes that really grabs you- due to a great combination of editing, soundtrack and the characters' vulnerability.
And Dean Stockwell's cameo is one of the most memorable and disturbing in recent history. The only aspect that didn't quite ring true for mine was some of Laura Dern's later scenes, but that's a pretty minor quibble given how well-rounded the rest of it is really.
