dream slideshows
I was reminded of the film "Eraserhead" the other day, when I read a David Lynch book.
Finally it explained the plot:
Man left with his ex-girlfriend's deformed baby, becomes paranoid. He loses his mind and begins a relationship with a woman in his radiator.
When I saw it, I was rather perplexed as to the point. There was an ugliness to the characters and creatures that inhabited it. It rapidly became grotesque and contrasted with the starkness of the man's small apartment.
Once I lost sight of the plot, it became a slide show of images that either intrigued or disgusted.
I often feel trapped in a dream like state when watching his films, easily manipulated by my own confusion.
Just once though I'll forget about agendas, the god complex and plot/meaning.
Random DVDs make the world go round, so does weird imagery.
