  Not an ounce of subtlety and a great Robert Pattinson performance

  Woah

  The choice to center this on the quietest character, against a rural and disintegrating backdrop, with the most ethereal music ever is so key to the success of the movie

  Eraserhead 1977

  ★★★★½ Watched 16 Jan 2025

  Electricity and light and ideas and a nightmare and questions and no answers and terrible, howling wind and gushing blood and stark light and a sweaty night and a terrible neighbor and heaven and a checkerboard stage and never any mail and all those feelings of a sickness that will never go away but does. The timelessness of a dark dream in 90 minutes. Perhaps the reality of having a kid. I love David Lynch

  Like yes… exciting idea… but I think poorly executed? All about putting “everything at stake” and then nothing was ever really at stake. The ending was a bore with all tensions fizzling to naught. Also the first 15 mins feels like a movie where all budget was given to the actors - weird music choices and wandering cinematography (gets better later).
