    the clip of Timothy wading into the water and reaching out to a bear, purposefully, just to touch it, with Alutiiq anthropologist Sven Haakanson speaking over the clip about how there is a 7000 year old boundary there that you must respect juuuussssst about sums the whole situation up, and that happens at the half hour mark. like, there's the culture of wild animals and the culture of people. they're neighbouring but there's a boundary there. a crunchy white uneducated…

    this is a horror movie top to bottom.

    feels weird giving this a three, considering it’s one of those love it or leave it kinda things, but there’s a lot to love and a lot to leave!

    - Nomi’s fascinating — where’d she come from and who is she and what’s her deal? she’s like a cryptid.

    - Bill Pullman looks like a hydrated Crispin Glover

    - the tailgating scene makes me feel seen and understood

    - kinda mid by comparison but for sure adds another interesting facet to the rest of Lynch's dreamworld. certainly not two thumbs down (lmao) but more like a wiggling "eeehhhhhh" hand

    - someone else is pulling the levers of your life, someone else is living in your space and in your time, and here, someone is handing you the props and filming it all
