Inland Empire

Well done to Lynch lovers Amy Ward, Greg Marsland and Percy Hirst for joining me in sitting through the three hour weird-fest that was Inland Empire.


Giant rabbit sitcom. Could be making fun of US television, could be foreshadowing the events of the film, could be in there for a laugh.


The creepy neighbour. Thinks there's going to be a murder and calls round to tell Laura Dern all about it.


Jeremy Irons. Playing a director who's making a film within David Lynch's film that's actually a remake of another film where the lead actors were murdered.


Laura Dern and Justin Theroux, playing actors starring in the new film. Their real lives may or may not blend into the lives of their characters, or indeed the characters of the original film. Or vice versa.


Foreign prostitutes. Who may or may not be smuggled to the US. And who start dancing to Kylie Minogue without any warning.


Laura Dern gets killed before the director calls "CUT!" Is this the end of the film within a film? Or the end of her life? Has she just been dreamt up by the woman at the start watching the rabbits? We may never know. But it seemed to have a happy ending.
