Review: David Lynch, for the first time declared itself is Eraserhead has been more than thirty years ago, has since been considered cruel cynic, destroyer of conservative moral values ​​of American society, or is perceived as a sarcastic joker frivolous postmodernist who just has fun children’s’ play The building block. ” But the director, at least ambivalent, like many of his characters, beginning with a certain Henry Spencer, quite Kafkaesque type with disheveled hair and a full turmoil in his head. The life and work of the Lynch does not fit into the “Procrustean bed” invented for the sake of simplicity schemes that eliminate lazy minds and souls of dormant and prochuvstvovaniya need to understand everything that confuses their uniqueness, apparent immorality, external or internal ugliness depravity.

In his second film, “The Elephant Man”, which was filmed in 1980 and was a commercial success in film (however, and the debut of Eraserhead, which was made a long four and a half years, was worth only $ 100 million, and has received a total of $ 7 million!), sound program director for the phrase: “People fear what they do not understand.” The representatives of the human race sharply reject them inaccessible to reason and the senses, declaring it an unpleasant or (at best) just boring. Hardly anyone ever dare to confess to their confusion, lack of training, if not the unwillingness to try to understand the inexplicable. And elementary depravity, the sinful nature of the characters is much enticing to viewers and readers than the author’s desire to find some anti-world impact on the behavior of people in this-worldly reality.

Absolutely absurd and surreal black-and-white style of “Eraserhead”, in actual fact, in common with almost daily and familiarity of the strange and mysterious colored nightmares in “Blue Velvet” and the TV series “Twin Peaks.” Incidentally, fans of cinematic explorations may find that astral dwarf in “Twin Peaks” dancing in the otherworldly room, “decorated with a geometric brothel” (according to the witty words of one American critic), which is exactly like the interior of a black-and-pop scene in a humorous the very first band director. And in general in “Eraserhead” contains, as if in spite of the name, in the form of non-erased almost all of Lynch’s favorite images and mania, which then will wander from film to film, hitting some “dislocate the imagination.” But the “dream of dark and troubling things” (as he defined the essence of David Lynch’s own debut) is not so nightmarish and horrable, sometimes causing irrational fit of laughter, which, of course, the easiest way to name nervous.

Review #2: This film of Lynch just shocked me. It turns out that Eraserhead and made him a cult director. Many consider this film one of the most disgusting and hard Lynch’s films, but David himself considers it his most subtle and soulful film. Few viewers are willing to take after viewing these words seriously. To me, it seems this is true.

Perhaps because the picture was born a very special way. Few people know that I had to go through then the director. The idea, or how Lynch likes to call it, is bartonovski, “big fish” spun, splashed around in his head, and some of the episodes he understood, but the perception of the full picture was not for long. The director could not comprehend it. I was looking for a clue, a key that would open the general sense of the film, and intuitively aware that something important was missing. Lynch was desperately looking for him, but he could not find the thread that would link the scenes together.

And one day, reading the Bible (in addition to other literature), he ran into some ice. “After that, I closed the Bible. I found. It was the same. Yes, the most important thing. I saw the whole picture – a full and complete. It is unlikely that I would ever admit that it was for the phrase. ” Film fans and future directors can take note and indulge in his study of one of the most important book of humanity.

The very same work on the film “Eraserhead” took about five years, and nearly brought Lynch to the grave. As time went on, people’s attitude to many things changed almost beyond recognition. “I was like locked inside the film, and I can not finish it – David lamented. – The world threw me overboard.” He is a music lover and visionary stopped listening to music, watching TV, and fell into a depression caused by the feeling of alienation. Due to budget constraints, he even began tinkering a small figure of the protagonist Henry to then put it in the scenery, constructed from boxes. The money ran out, and so, frame by frame, Lynch was going to make a movie. In this case, circumstances forced him at all to engage with this project, because it was necessary to feed his wife and daughter. Now it is impossible to imagine, but the great filmmaker David Lynch then became a paperboy with a meager salary and managed to hold off on dosemki.

Single story occurred with the actor who played Henry – Jack Nancy (pet and friend of Lynch, which then glows even in many paintings). He waited three years, the director, constantly thinking about the character and not letting it die. In one scene, there is a frame in which Henry walks in the door, but the hero appeared from behind the door and the scene is shot took one and a half years! Appears here despairing tone of the film, when with all this, David had to nurse her first child in a room above the kitchen with the windows up against a wall morgue …
