Featured Film:

David Lynch at SIFF

Not immune to the hype surrounding the revival of Twin Peaks, perennial local favorite David Lynch gets the retrospective treatment starting this week at SIFF, with Eraserhead and The Elephant Man at the Film Center and Lost Highway at the Egyptian, all presented on 35mm. In coming weeks, they’ll be playing acknowledged masterpieces Mulholland Dr. and Blue Velvet, alongside Inland Empire and Dune, oddities great and notorious. I recommend watching them concurrently with the Ozu series at SAM and SIFF’s own on-going Douglas Sirk series (which features my favorite Sirk this week: Written on the Wind). Run the full gamut of the surreality of melodrama and see how your brain feels. Ryan’s got our series preview.
