Inland Empire is beautiful in a way.

1. Self-financed experimental project. Digital video was cheaper and allowed for total creative freedom, he could shoot as much footage as he wanted
2. He was past the point where he needed to prove himself to plebs. MD was not his first "visually beautiful" project, he's already shown the world he can do that
3. He's made other projects, in film and other mediums, where ugliness and dissonance are a big part of the aesthetic. Eraserhead fits that description and it launched his career.
4. The look works. I felt like it reinforced the "nightmare" feeling of the whole project. I love this movie and I think it's one of his best

I liked it because it made a lot of scenes feel like a behind-the-scenes feature, which made sense given what happens in the movie.

mulholland drive looks like shit as well.

>implying Inland Empire isn't beautiful at points
It's just low res but it has its own aesthetic and the movie is really beautiful at points, both in content and in visuals.

i agree with this

The first time I saw it I thought it was just ok. The second time I saw it after getting a lot more cinema under my belt and gaining a little maturity and it was the most compelling experience of my life and I am now fully convinced of Lynch's genius.

1 question: Are there lesbians/lesbian sex in this movie? If so, I will watch it.

>>83533791
Yes.

>>83531737
that way she pulls back reminds me of a limmy sketch

>>83533791
There's a hooker showing her friends her tits and a kiss between two women at the end but other than that, no.

LYNCHED

>people try and find deep meaning or understanding within Inland Empires scenes

>it was literally just Lynch filming everything he thought of/dreamed of/wanted to because he bought a digital camera and realized he had complete freedom to do so

>>83536202
It started out that way. It wasn't just completely filmed that way though. And even if it was it's still coming from the mind of one person who sees the world in a certain way so there would still be meaning there. I don't see the point of only analyzing movies that have one specific meaning that's easy to find. I think it's a lot more interesting to take a movie this abstract and talk about it.

what did lynch mean by this?
