Lost Highway

Tucson Weekly

DIRECTED BY: David Lynch

REVIEWED: 03-13-97

It's another weird David Lynch movie designed to make you feel like merely a visitor in your own body. Bill Pullman and Patricia Arquette star as a typical yet completely unfamiliar version of the film noir couple--he's depressed and suspicious, she's beautiful and furtive. They stare at each other, pacing around their '70s ranch house, waiting for something bad to happen. Eventually, it does. Things only get stranger from there. It's as if Lynch took Dostoyevsky's The Double, added a whole bunch of references to '40s films, cut it up and pasted it back together, all while drinking gallons of espresso. I like it!
