i must see this movie.

You know a lot more than you think | The Japan Times Online:
A man and a woman are glimpsed, in murky black-and-white images, in a Polish hotel room, their faces mosaiced out. "You want to fuck me?" she asks. "Shut up and take off your clothes," he answers. "I'm frightened." she says. Cut to full color and a girl wrapped in a red sheet, crying, and watching TV. Enter into her television; it's a strange, twisted kind of sitcom with three human-size rabbits sitting in a queasily colored 1950s-style living room. Their conversation consists of nothing but cryptic nonsequiturs: "Who could have known?" "What time is it?" "I'm going to tell them some day." Each utterance is met with raucous canned laughter. One rabbit walks out the door on the set; he enters an ornate room where two Polish thugs are having a conversation, and then he disappears.

well I've seen mulholland drive and twin peaks.
We've got lost highway on DVD but have yet to watch it.
I used to think David Lynch was operating on another level from other directors and that none of us have a chance of ever truly understanding him due to his genius.

Now I realize he is simply incapable of creating a consistent vision of a movie. His only genius is in continuously convincing us that there is actually something to possibly understand in the tripe he pedals.

Much like the difference between a Pollock and simple paint splatters is in the explanation. It is the same with Lynch's disconnected streams of celluloid.


I'll not be suckered into wasting another minute of my life on any of his work.

That's pretty disappointed.
