Wild at Heart
Deep in the south of the USA, Sailor Ripley (Nicolas Cage) and Lula Fortune (Laura Dern) passionately desire each other. Their love forces them to flee from Lula's mother (Diane Ladd), her hitmen and the long arm of the law. The road movie turns into a ghost train ride full of burning desire, ludicrous violence and nightmarish memories. In David Lynch's vision of a world gone off the rails, Alice in Wonderland is connected via the navel of dreams to the region beyond the rainbow, where the search of naive souls for the Wizard of Oz is not hopeless. Because “the whole world is wild at heart and crazy to boot” as Lula states, dreams come true at the end to the sounds of Elvis. With its explosive power and bizarre excesses, Wild at Heart shaped the cinema of its decade like hardly any other film. (T.W.)
