Lost Highway (DVD) ... released 17 June, 2002 at Universal Pictures UK / Features of the DVD: Anamorphic, PAL, Widescreen / David Lynch's Lost Highway is one of the most puzzled over movies of the 1990s. After Twin Peaks and Wild at Heart audiences were prepared for more questions than answers. But this mystery is without doubt the most sinister and disturbing of all his work, which is to say it's arguably the most worthy of puzzling out. Bill Pullman goes to jail for murdering his wife Patricia Arquette the Brunette. He metamorphoses into Balthazar Getty who falls for Patricia Arquette the Blonde. They're involved in many bad things. Getty morphs back to Pullman who's left with neither girl, but a lot of explaining to do about how Robert Loggia was involved with both and who/what on earth Robert Blake is. There are no straight answers. It might just be possible to twist the film into a Moebius strip and work out half the chronology, but that would be missing the point. Lynch makes paintings that move and if they happen to tell a tale (thank you The Straight Story), that's just a happy by-product. This film is "about" a lot of things: obsession, the impossible notion of owning a partner, why tailgating is wrong. Beyond that, it's about nothing more than enjoying just how sensually delicious everything looks and sounds on Lynch's Highway. On the DVD: Lost Highway is presented on disc in Lynch's preferred 2.35:1 ratio (anamorphically enhanced), even if it isn't the cleanest of transfers. Sound however, is only two channel stereo, whereas 5.1 mixes do exist elsewhere. The teaser trailer is hardly worth the effort. --Paul Tonks

 ... the list was endless, but then I realised that this is exactly what Lynch wants us to do. He wants a prodigious level of ambiguity in his films. He wants us to question. He wants us to answer the questions ourselves, and make up our own minds. Lost Highway focuses around a middle-aged saxophonist named Fred Madison played by Bill Pullman. Fred is accused, under mysterious circumstances of murdering his wife Renee Madison (Patricia Arquette). Whilst on death row, Fred's identity distorts, and he manifests into a young m...more

Crowned Review Lost Highway (DVD): The Mind in the Mangle of the Genius (845 words)

Here, at the beginning of a film-review, there ought to be some kind of plot synopsis, shouldn´t it? No chance, not with this film! Sure, one can try and write about the couple the story starts with, and how they find a mysterious videotape in front of their house one morning, and one more on each following day, showing out of his perspective the intrusion of their house by the even more mysterious film-maker, a bit further inside on every day, until he even films them peacefully sleeping in their bed. One can also write about the husband ( Bill Pullman in what is most probably his best role ever), who – after meeting a strange pale man who seems to have ...

Premium Review Dark and twisted (445 words)

Released in theaters in 1997 Lost Highway is classic David Lynch. He uses strange plot structure, so while the film begins normally enough, it soon becomes twisted and surreal. To summarize the plot, a couple find a video tape left on the steps leading to their house, the small amount of footage on the tape is of the outside of their house. More video tapes arrive and the footage they see on the video becomes more and more alarming as the unknown camera operator begins to record them asleep in their bed. Obviously this is disturbing to them and they contact police, but with no other evidence they can do nothing for them. The film then ...

Lost Highway's plot is very bizarre. At first it seems like a mysterious film noir. A married couple, Renee(Patricia Arquette) and jazz musician Fred (Bill Pullman) start to recieve weird videotapes on their doorsteps, at first the tape just shows the exterior of their house. The next tape is a lot more sinister, as the mysterious cameraman is inside the house and filming the two sleeping. The two call the police, who is typical Lynch style aren't the best of police officers, and are shaken up. Meanwhile Fred is convinced that his beautiful wife is having an affair and is very paranoid about this. One night at a party, Fred is approached by a very ghost like man ...
