David Lynch Fuoco Cammina Con Me

I saw "Blue Velvet" about ten years ago and it really didn't leave an impression on me, but maybe watching it again now will change that... @DARKEVE: I didn't comment with the intention of countering your remark, it's just a coincidence that I also used the term "least successful film." That said, I find it hard to compare the Twin Peaks series to the movie since I watched the former through the eyes of a fourteen-year-old and the latter through those of a thirty-four-year-old; nonetheless, I appreciated both.

I saw it recently, almost twenty years after watching the Twin Peaks series, so I probably missed more than a few connections; nonetheless, it did not disappoint me at all, even though it is true that it is a film that rather than revealing adds even more mysteries (Laura's parents knew about Bob!). It certainly doesn’t deserve the label of Lynch's least successful film (if anything, for me it's "Blue Velvet" or perhaps "Dune").

Finally, a review that doesn’t just lazily rattle off praises and superlatives but also attempts to provide a personal interpretation of the film. Thank you, you’ve illuminated some dark points for me or at least helped me reflect on them; the beauty of Lynch's films is that you spend less time watching them than thinking about them, even if in this "Strade Perdute" he pushed it a bit too far. I prefer films like "Mullholland Drive" that give the audience more chances.

I read "L'Italiano o il Confessionale dei Penitenti Neri" by Della Radcliffe ages ago, a sort of gothic Promessi Sposi that apparently has many points in common with this one, starting with the setting. Even in that book, she lingered a lot on the description of landscapes; she must have really loved Italy. In any case, the girl knew how to write.

Tim Burton Alice in Wonderland

"Carroll's work begins as a 'nonsense-book', a book that is indeed without meaning." Well, I have always thought it was the dream of a little girl who translates her real life into the fantastic, so the Caterpillar could be the know-it-all school teacher, the White Rabbit the father who never has time to be with her, the Queen the punishing mother, etc. but these are just my conjectures. The film appears empty to me even from the trailer, but it seems Burton has completely lost it; his films have lost creativity in proportion to the increasing budget to make them. A piece of advice to all cinephiles: absolutely check out "Alice" by Jan Svankmajer, now that’s a courageous and visionary cinematic reinterpretation.

I know Benni for the indescribable and imaginative "Terra!", but I wasn't aware of the existence of the film in question. Is the ending bitter or bittersweet?

Hilarious and satirical, if it’s not his best film, at least it’s the most entertaining.

Seen. Well, certainly not a film that leaves one indifferent, but it's shot in such a trashy way that it's hard to take it seriously (the juxtaposition between the strangled chicken and the woman enjoying herself had me in stitches). I'll see about reevaluating it after I've read some De Sade and Bataille.
