This movie has its own audience

This movie tells a logically chaotic story with multiple main lines. Everyone has a story, slightly funny and slightly horrifying. After watching more than half of it, I didn't understand what the movie was talking about. Think about the evaluation of this movie by various authorities-the classics in the classics, and finally endure fast forward in the last part to finish watching this suspenseful classic.
The ending is slightly horrible. Think of that smiling and energetic Betty turned into a hideous corpse. It's a nightmare come true.
There is an allusion in Chinese history that the blind rides a blind horse and faces a deep pond in the middle of the night. It's about a few people who have nothing to do, and whoever tells the story in the game is more terrifying. One person said: A hundred-year-old man is climbing dead branches. One person said: Swaddled children are placed on the rollers. One said: The blind man rides a blind horse and faces the deep pool in the middle of the night. Just one person in the room was blind, and he felt cold and terrifying.
After watching this movie, I also got chills. Just because of the innuendo of the story, I didn't realize myself. Unemployed and frustrated, trying to control life, but was led by the nose.
Just like Betty, she can only make up the beauty in her dreams to avenge the harm done to her by the society. However, when I woke up from a dream, I was extremely decadent, weak in my heart, and almost collapsed.
Some time ago, I happened to experience two near collapses. One time seemed to be the unfortunate story of others in the book, told to set off the happiness of this world; one time, it seemed as if God was going to surrender to me and to be ravaged first.
From emotion to soul, to extreme weakness. For those who don’t know my situation, I choose to conceal it completely and selectively. Well, it’s almost a lie, just to the person closest to me. No one knows how miserable I have been except myself. For others, I always beautify my situation. Only I can figure out the weight of the damage that has been added together again and again. This heavy weight can only be digested by oneself.

For Betty's final destruction of herself, it happened to resonate with me. Deep down, those demons also tried to run out and drag me into hell, although only rarely.

    ①2017-5-20 The six brushes are still running with tears, and there are new discoveries every time. The color and soundtrack are all perfect. ②Forever love Nuomi, the most suitable actor to be an inspirational idol, and not mentioning the actress is really Oscar unreasonable. ③The shredded paper on the street in the early morning is flying, and it is cold and desolate | Silencio | This is all a tape-recording | It is a illusion | The psychedelic blue mist. ④I wander between dream and reality. ⑤2021.9.23. North Film Festival-Sanlitun Mega Happy Studios-4K restoration version (excellent picture quality and color), realize your dream late at night! This time I was surprised that more than one scene resembled [双峰]. In addition, Lynch is really good at mixing and mixing multiple elements/heterogeneous atmospheres. For example, the silent theater and the end of death cycle between horror and sadness. The multiple interspersed narratives in the dream part also make viewers funny and weird. Swing with suspicion, nervousness/positive joy (Nuo Mi’s optimistic longing when she first arrived in Hollywood in her dream is too contagious)~ (9.5/10)

    It should be four brushes. This movie is really worthy of its status. The meaning of rewatching is to discover the details. Just imagine the success of "Memories" because its editing helped the audience to omit the step of rewatching. , And Lynch is bolder here, more because this is also a story that cannot be described by linear narrative at all. PS: After watching "Double Peaks" in this step, I found that there are so many coffee stalks here too! Damn!
