Review of Wild at Heart (1990) by Randy T — 17 Apr 2009
David Lynch comes at you on two levels. His rendition of Wild at Heart plays to both the conscious and the subconscious. You'll watch Diane Ladd confront Nicolas Cage in a men's room, but later you'll flashback to the overhead shot of the toilet.
You'll be engrossed by the conversation between Laura Dern and Willem Dafoe in a motel, but it's the extreme closeup of Dafoe's teeth that will haunt you later. It's the surreal imagery that makes Lynch's work so bizarre and so utterly fantastic.
