Blue Velvet leading heavenly through Bloody Darkness

a deeper study than before of Blue Velvet
Rediscovered Movie 18:1

Realise how well it fits into the world of Lynch *
sowing seeds for Twin Peaks as well as Mulholland Dr.
making a human story of Eraserhead's surreal phenomenons

also intriguing how much here shows in rather Red
not at least Dorothys dress and appartment
even though her dreams may be more blue

with music by Angelo Badalementi + some early 60's themes
