Inland Empire (David Lynch, 2006, USA/Poland, 179 min.)
With INLAND EMPIRE, David Lynch – creator of such mind-bending works
as Eraserhead and Lost Highway – delivers his most avant-garde,
abstract, and impenetrable vision yet. A three-hour fever nightmare
of a motion picture, shot in grainy, eerie DV, INLAND EMPIRE takes
the basic structure of Lynch's 2001 masterpiece, Mulholland Drive,
and spins it even further out of control. A blonde actress (Laura
Dern) is preparing for her biggest role yet, but when she finds
herself falling for her co-star (Justin Theroux), she realizes that
her life is beginning to mimic the fictional film that they're
shooting. Adding to her confusion is the revelation that the current
film is a remake of a doomed Polish production, 47, which was never
finished due to an unspeakable tragedy. Not for the fragile or timid,
INLAND EMPIRE is a full-blown assault to the senses.
