Audrey! youre such a tease!(but still one of my favortie threads)

the DENOUEMENT ( that scene where the main action of the plot is recapitulated and loose ends tied up), it ain't. this presupposes that we agree on the actual plot and the loose ends. which may well be never. :D i get your point, but i see it differently. it does emotionally engage me. thus, is sat...

id like to amend my previous post about the structure of the film regarding the climax. thinking about what carl said, id have to say that the stabbing and death of dern/nikki/sue would be the climax, extending to the catharsis when dern shoots the phantom the final time as he wears her distorted fa...

**As to the control of the Phantom over LG ( proior to the murders), that's an interesting question . I see that he tres to control her, but in the old fashioned way: through physical and emotional intimidation, not magic. i know its not the film proper, but the the scene in MTTH between LG and the...

To your last question: just have never been moved emotionally, no catharsis, nothing like that. My wife, btw, disagrees totally with me on this. The endings of FWWM and MD , on the other hand, I do find moving. ( Well, not the monkey saying 'Judy', the Red Room and Boxcar scenes is what I mean.) Es...

but she does sound like Gruszka talking to the street girls in the snow. And Gruszka's character in the old movie is otherwise the only female in the movie who speaks Polish. And Gruszka looks pretty murderous climbing those stairs. i agree gruszka looks like she is intent on something very serious...

The love scene that this 'earlier scene' preceeded never eventuates in Smithy's House in OHIBT, but , of course, does between Devon and Nikki in the set of Smithy's house. Nice. then why is piotrek/smithy looking on? actually looking more like smithy there? and he says nothing. he is totally passiv...

first id like to say that one of my main ideas about IE is that the primary characters(nikki, lost girl, piotrek, devon, the phantom) are self-aware that they are characters in the film IE and, as such, that they are in (our) reality, simply actors. ive found it easier to just refer to the actor's r...

tho i disagree with him on some of his interpetations of certain details, i agree overall with MichaelPW. its all variations of "a women in trouble". physical, emotion, spiritual, etc. meshed with the unified field idea of consciousness. of course then manipulated by lynch and his team int...

i forgot one thing they are also the two woman in the "Room to Dream" scene on that DVD. maybe that is why i was able to tell them apart in IE, as i had seen them quite awhile before i saw IE. "yes tonight will be different" is interesting. i can only think of the hollywood and v...

Heaven's a large and interesting place
or so the saying goes

personally i dont remember laura saying that line. then again i saw FWWM when i was thirteen, so if they did indeed edit that one line which was included in the original release, i have never noticed its absence. but it does seem strange that laura would say that about ronnette, considering jacques ...
