“Heineken? Fuck that shit! Pabst Blue Ribbon!”

Kyle MacLachlan, Isabella Rosselini and Dennis Hopper turn in some of the best performances of their respective careers in director Lynch’s ultra cool and very cult 1986 neo-noir mystery thriller BLUE VELVET, which also features a standout performance from the late, great Dean Stockwell.

Strange, sexy, brilliant and surreal, BLUE VELVET is widely regarded as one of the best films of that decade, earning Lynch his second Best Director Oscar nomination. The film is very much a showcase for Lynch’s stylish visuals and occasional bouts of disturing (if not weird) imagery, its moody aesthetic enhanced further by a memorable score from Angelo Badalementi (who also supervised the soundtrack). Also starring Laura Dern, and a severed human ear.

“Every viewing yields new insights. A berserko modern classic.” (Little White Lies)

“Three decades after its initial release, David Lynch’s ‘Blue Velvet’ has lost none of its power to derange, terrify, and exhilarate.” (Village Voice)

“The charged erotic atmosphere makes the film something of a hallucination, but Lynch’s humor keeps breaking through, too.” (Pauline Kael, New Yorker)

BLUE VELVET (David Lynch, 1986 / 120 mins / 18A) There’s something going on behind the white picket fences of Lumberton, North Carolina. And after stumbling upon a severed human ear in a field, mystery-loving college student Jeffrey Beaumont is determined to find out what. Teaming up with the daughter of a local police detective, Jeffrey’s investigation leads him into a strange world of sensuality and violence, with the intrigue of the missing ear seemingly stemming from the relationship between a troubled nightclub singer and a sociopathic sadomasochist.
