Lost Highway
David Lynch / US, 1997 / 132 min.
David Lynch classic that gives an extra impulse to the film noir genre, with femmes that are even more fatale and a chain of mysterious events. A dark journey in the company of Bill Pulmann and Patrica Arquette. On reality taking the imagination for a ride – or is it the other way around?
‘Film noir to the max’: Lost Highway is the adaptation of Robert Aldrich’s noir classic Kiss Me Deadly, but in the typically Lynchian package of a dark journey along a lost highway, with (except for the guardrails) switching identities as the only thing to cling on to, and a double bottom and disorientation as the guiding dramaturgic principles.
