crime thriller "Blue Velvet" has received 17 awards at various international film festivals, but even in these days is in the minds of viewers tuned sanctimonious Puritan anger and righteous anger.The reasons for this perception are the films plot twists and turns.A picture story begins with the fact that the main character, a young man, Jeffrey Beaumont returns to his home, at first glance, a respectable and handsome town Lemberton.The fact that his father was admitted to the hospital after an acute attack of unknown disease, and doctors still have not established a definite diagnosis.In the desire to unwind from gloomy thoughts protagonist goes on a walk through the deserted outskirts and unexpectedly finds a real human ear.A young man is excited to announce the terrible discovery of the local police and Williams met with his daughter Sandy, which showed not anyhow a curiosity to his accidental discovery.Young people find out during a conversation, that perhaps in the accident is the attitude of local beauty, cabaret singer Dorothy, whose crowning room, the song "Blue Velvet" crazy mad all the men in the neighborhood.Jeffrey, driven by youthful maximalism, could not resist the temptation to conduct an independent investigation and discover everything about the life of the fatal temptress.So he will face scum Frank Booth with sadomasochistic tendencies, experience the corrupting influence of an evil passion for Dorothy hurt in love with him Sandy.
nod to the maestro Alfred Hitchcock
creator of films by David Lynch in the film "Blue Velvet" was trying to strictly follow certain traditions of the genre of "black film" psychological thriller and suspense, and tuned development of the storyline inadvertently sends the viewer to the works of Alfred Hitchcock.At the same time Lynch bravely introduces features tight melodrama, forcing the hero to do back-breaking, painful choice between inexorable attraction to the sexy woman of mystery and relations with cute, but ordinary girl.To be honest, anyone unable to overcome an inexplicable craving for a sense of danger around the mysterious thrill, because it allows it, even for a short time, make a variety of gray tedious routine.As a true
skillful stylist Lynch very close to the vaunted aesthetics of postmodernism, like turning out inside specific genre canons, ironically mock aesthetics of reality, and it helps the curtain of blue velvet.
«Blue Velvet" - the progenitor of "Twin Peaks»
In my humble opinion, "Blue Velvet" - a film created with a kind of manic inspiration, but, unfortunately, his whole demonic mystical aura of the course of action is dissipated as themorning mist.Although to be surprised, because the belief in the mystical source of evil is not particularly necessary, the person himself is quite capable of every kind of evil.One has only to think about: the film "Blue Velvet" 1986 release by a unanimous decision of eminent film critics became the progenitor of this mystical cult series "Twin Peaks."
