well im sorry to say but this is my first david lynch movie to i've ever watched!! i was afraid to watch david lynch movies mainly because i was afraid that my interpretations would be wayyyy off.. because really there is no one way to interpret his movies... but im glad i watched this movie.. here's what i got from the movie
its obvious what david lynch is trying to say.. HOLLYWOOD IS FAKE.... ITS HORRIBLE.. AND ITS NOT THAT GREATTT.. i think that was his main point.. now having said that.. lets get into specifics
of course there were two halves of the movie.. first half and second half.. by the end of the box scene is where the movie touches upon the supernatural .. so obviously thats where the movie splits... first half of the movie ? what does it mean? well i hear it was a dream sequence by (the blond woman) .. i've also heard arguments that it could be the reality half and the second half of the movie could be dream sequence.. but it would make more sense if the first half was adream sequence.. and it supports what i think was the point of the movie..
there were lots of metaphors and symbolism... check for it.. colors... bullheads skull.. stuff like that...
david lynch fools you by thinking the first half was the brunettes story.. establishing who's story is vital in storytelling.. i've learned that in my classes when writing a screen play for a movie.. and somehow david lynch does a good job breaking that rule.. shifting ffrom the brunettes story to the blonde's.. i loved that.. established a solid line seperating each story.. he did it in so many wayz.. noticed how things moved sooooooo slowthe first half? .. i was about to fall asleeep..
david lynch is just amazing.. must watch his other movies..
