Well Share, you may have your opinions :-) But just watch Sal and the Turq and see what they find interesting. It's usually VERY ordinary popular culture. The Straight Story was very touching and probably DL's most accessible film, made by Disney as it was. And while it has a nice heartfelt story and some great photography it doesn't create the marvel as many of his other films do. It's also the film he is least happy with since he did not have full creative control of the editing.

This is the sort of stuff my friends in film school were doing in 1969. It's adolescent poseur stuff. I didn't get as far as watching the video. I think DL had some good ideas in the early days but his stuff seems really lazy now. In inland empire he'd have a conversation going on between two characters and someone will walk past in the background with a fish mask on. Yeah, it's technically surreal but so what? It isn't like he's making any clever points about the human unconscious , it's all just art for arts sake. And Mulholland Drive was a wasted opportunity IMO, all those great actors and he decided to "leave it up to the viewer to decide which bits were real or not" That sort of laziness makes even Eraserhead feel really shallow to me now. I bet Elephant Man is still good though, but that's about it. Rant over. "Penny Dreadful" is much better, and it's just television. :-) Yes. I'm looking forward to that one.
