What is the Inland Empire

It would be too simplistic to explain that this is the vigorous fantasy of a Polish girl. Besides, she will never have such a complicated and self-contained dream. If it is a dream, then it can only be said that this dream is alive, than dreaming. People are more real. It is not certain who will make who. I think the "inland empire" strung them together. They are all fantasies of the rabbits of the inland empire. The rabbits like to make movies, like to watch movies, like to play interactive games with the audience, and provoke the audience's IQ, just like David Same as Lynch.
In any case, this is a family story. It seems that the rabbits in the empire have an unhappy family life. But rabbits also live in soap operas, so it can be said that the world where the audience is is the real inland empire, all of which can grow in our minds. Of course, you can also say that the rabbit is just a channel, parallel to other stories. But then you have to examine their time. Like the people who interpret "Little Fire", make a timetable. But Nabokov would not let the guys who made the timetable succeed, just like Lynch.
Like those complex enough novels, it is a toy that you can organize yourself. How did they happen? In novels, let the characters write novels, and in movies, let the characters make movies. In stories of different levels, the characters have similar situations or images. This is complicated and interesting enough. When you don't know which is more real, it's time to go to sleep.

    One of David Lynch's most obscure movies is almost impossible to deconstruct correctly. The second half of the narrative is completely fragmented. Multi-layered narratives, blurry and shaking shots, distorted close-ups, blurred colors, a large number of mashups and collages of dialogue and intentions, and a 3-hour film length, make you stare without thinking. This is David Lynch’s most thorough show of the spiritual world, but I still prefer the gorgeous and easy-to-understand "Mulholland Road." (8.5/10)

    This... I'm crazy this time, Mulholland Road and everything are floating clouds, I still think Eraser Head is Lynch's best movie
