·The indoor shot was taken at the Amargosa Hotel in Death Valley, which is said to be haunted.
·The residence of the protagonist Fred Madison in the film, and most of the furniture in the house, belong to David Lynch and designed by him.
David Lynch claimed that he didn't realize the subconscious motive that prompted him to make this film until 2002: his inspiration came from the sensational Simpson wife murder case that year. When Lynch was writing the script, the trial of Simpson's wife murder had a crucial influence on him. Coincidentally, David Lynch asked Robert Blake to play an important role in the film-the mysterious man. A few years later, Robert Blake himself stood on the trial bench because he killed his wife. Accept the trial.
· In the whole movie, the mysterious man does not blink his eyes.
· In a recent interview, David Lynch admitted that the stories of "Monster Night Panic" and "Twin Peaks" took place in the same world.
According to David Lynch, the inspiration for the first scene of the film comes from his own personal experience. He said that one morning, the intercom device on his door rang, and when he answered, an unfamiliar voice told him: "Dick Laurant is dead." But when he walked to the front of the house, he looked out through the window. When I saw no one.
Robert Black tells Lynch that he is not going to put effort into studying the script because he doesn't understand it. He also said that his role is a devil.
· A script written by David Lynch and Barry Gifford, and the latter is the author of the book "My Heart is Wild" (1990). Lynch said that another page of Gifford's book, Night People, inspired him to name the film. On that page, Lynch saw the words Lost and Highway, which immediately merged with his soul, enough to give him all the inspiration he wanted.
· Fred Madison’s camcorder in the film is David Lynch’s own.

    Rewatch. Six-star movie, postmodernist model. Lynch's image points to the future, and any psychological deconstruction is useless. Imagery is perceptual, and as we hit the dark road with David Bowie's I'm Deranged, we've become jazz musicians in a frenzy. Sexual, violent, bizarre, we're madly absorbing Lynch's video drug, turning off the sun, and pulling the stars down from the sky. Death and fear surround us. The change of identities between maintenance workers and musicians, the death of Dick Lauren, "true and false when false." We can't tell the difference between the real and the fake, let alone know the boundary between the real and the fake.

    0812 Big screen rewatch. The corner of the theater in the middle of the night feels a little scary but still charming. His movies are "flying big" style in my heart, the green and red are wonderful and suffocating. I really like this one, it has a lot of aftertastes, and the structure is interesting. It's hilarious to see Manson.//I look at the disparity between the human brain and the human brain.
