This has been 'Pedantic Coin-Based Movie Trivia'. They look like them, but have no silver content. It's not like every film needs to be completely objective and literal, but Wild at Heart is a good representation of Lynch's tendency to drop bizarre breadcrumbs which people eat up and furiously defend as divinely inspired.įor the many, many scenarios where it will be relevant in the future: Eisenhower Dollars are not silver dollars. But in Wild at Heart, there is just as much confusion as there is entertainment value for what is essentially a traditional road movie at its core. In certain contexts, like the mental instability of Mulholland Dr., this structure makes sense and plays well into the design of the film. As a filmmaker, it seems that Lynch has a particular talent for creating a range of distinctive, memorable, and unique characters, but also revels in dense ambiguity when it comes to theme and plot this combination gives him the appearance of an appealing and interesting artist, but it's a bit of a cop-out, leaving your films so wide open to interpretation that they are essentially meaningless.
Wild at Heart is very 'David Lynch' - wandering and immersed in puzzling tone/character design, but strange to the point of endearment.
David Lynch walked Willem Dafoe on down to the wardrobe department, and just told them: "Make this man look like a gross John Waters".
