One more favorite I realized I didn't have something posted for. I think some of these big favorites, I've seen so many times, I don't even watch them anymore, hence never thinking of writing them up. They're engraved so solidly in my mind I don't need to watch them anymomre.
Anyway. This is a placeholder. What are you going to say about the "Blue Velvet"? This is the one where it all came together for surrealist filmmaker David Lynch, with a deeply disturbing story, Hypperreal production values, like watching some kind of off-kilter wax museum come to life, and terrific performances from some usually B-grade actors, most especially reviving at-the-time has-been Dennis Hopper's career with his outright terrifying depiction of villain Frank Booth. And how we were supposed to watch Dean Stockwell's lighthearted performance in "Quantum Leap" after his bizarre, sleazy cameo in this?
More than I can sum up in a review. Just google it.
