Negative Positive
Title: Running on Empty
Review: You can't always know what the other guy's thinking, but this seems to be the pivot point upon which David Lynch crafts his essentially noir tale of fractured identity and broken dreams.Bill Pullman figures prominently in this film as a sax player who, through a particular psychological breakdown finds himself inside another man's world, feeling his feelings, and thinking his thoughts, many of which are of violent actions approaching murder.To attempt any reductive rationale for the Lynchian style is to do a great injustice to both the director and viewer, since part of the dynamic of the film is based on our own perception of reality and how it is visualized in the film.Watch the movie with glee, and a decent helping of sugar- it's a wild ride down a lost highway.
