Eraserhead

(1977)

In heaven everything is fine.

This week, we’re watching David Lynch’s first film. It took him the better part of a decade to make. It’s surrealist and avante garde in the way only Lynch can pull off, and it’s probably his most personal, most intimate film. He kinda lets his nightmares and fears literally play out for us to see, feverish and confusing. We try to untangle it all. What works? What doesn’t? We discuss!
