The lighting is bright and colourful, just like Sailor’s ridiculous snakeskin jacket. In every moment Wild At Heart is brash (it has one of the most violently contentious openings I have seen). The dialogue often provokes simultaneous shock and laughter. At its heart, the film is also a romance story, and it leans on this forcefully and erotically- it’s intense, often graphic sexuality is key to its identity. The usual hypnotising drawn-out sequences are present yet they are infused with a sense of silliness and enjoyment- Wild At Heart ’s concert scene evokes a similar moment in Blue Velvet but is far more playful and ludicrous. Though Wild At Heart offers the typical madness you would expect from David Lynch, this time around it is presented through a lens that feels more accessible than the films he is best known for (Blue Velvet, Mulholland Drive, Eraserhead ). David Lynch Entertains with ‘Wild at Heart’ The film is filled with steamy romance, violence, hints of lurking evil, and a tone that is recognisably otherworldly yet perhaps more purely fun than the director’s classics.
Wild At Heart finds David Lynch infusing a fairly standard road-trip premise with his distinctly odd sensibilities. Chased down by assassins, lovebirds Sailor (Nicolas Cage) and Lula (Laura Dern) take to the road to escape their demons.
