A college student stumbles across a bizarre mystery and wants to know more, perhaps too much more. The strange world he's found lurking beneath his hometown's picture-postcard veneer is about to become much stranger. It's also an unforgettably fascinating and foreboding world, a unique vision that made Blue Velvet #3 in a critics' poll of the '80s best American films (American Film, November 1989). Award-winning moviemaker David Lynch's Blue Velvet spins a spidery web around dreamy, disparate characters in a place called Lumberton...then knots it tight. Doe-eyed Isabella Rossellini shivers with a fearsome blue secret. Dennis Hopper, his veins bulging and his engines pumping sleaze, wheezes psychotic rage. Painted, preening Dean Stockwell mimes a Roy Orbison tune. Laura Dern radiates off-kilter girl-next-door sunniness. And Kyle MacLachlan (also the star of Lynch's Dune and Twin Peaks) peeks from closet and car at a constantly spiralling mystery that attracts and repels him. "Are you a detective or a pervert?" Dern asks. The answer may be both. Blue Velvet is a detective thriller. A love story. A hate story. A comedy. It's a movie landmark whose impact may reach far beyond its own era.
