Review of Blue Velvet (1986) by Richard B — 26 Apr 2011
So I am rewatching all of David Lynch's films and man are they really good. This was one of his first films and it is really good. It is much more of a straight forward film compared to some of his later films, but it is not any less weird then all his other films.
The acting is very solid, especially Dennis Hopper, who gives probably his best performance either. Laura Dern and Kyle MacLachlan also give really good performances early in their careers. You can tell that this film really influenced Twin Peaks as it is very similar in tone and setting.
The music used in the film is also really good. Overall this is another very good film by David Lynch that isn't for everyone, but a film I really enjoyed.
