Exemplary of David Lynch’s surreal, dreamlike, fragmented, neo-noir style, this film is, as Lynch himself described it, “a love story set in the city of dreams.” (Otherwise known as Hollywood.) While that may be technically true, take that with a dose of enigmatic irony and expect high levels of weird. We chose this film to honor the passing of Lynch, an important figure for the Cineteca di Bologna and many of us.. He passed away in early 2025 after evacuation from the Los Angeles wildfires. We are also looking forward to screening it together with his notoriously favorite film, The Wizard of Oz. Content note: Sexual situations Event Url
