The Climax of Lost Highway

I saw this recently at The Roxy with my friend Ben and it hit so hard.  I really liked this one in high school but seeing it for the first time in maybe 10 years, I was kind of shocked by how great it was.  To enjoy Lost Highway, you have to shut your brain off and just submit to the movie.  At the end, two characters drive out to the desert in the middle of the night looking for a burning cabin they’ve seen in visions and then have sex on the sand, illuminated by the headlights of their parked car.  This Mortal Coil’s version of ‘Song To The Siren’ plays.  We were in the front row it was crazy.

Just watched lost highway

I watched Eraserhead for the first time a few days ago and just watched Lost Highway. Both were great, I think I liked Lost Highway Better though. Very confusing and left me thinking a lot. I'm on my David Lynch grind, planning on starting Twin Peaks soon

chaos: charles manson, the cia, and the secret history of the sixties by tom o'neill with dan piepenbring

A Manson book in which Manson is not even the most evil guy, but someone named DR. JOLLY is. Good example of how Pynchon was not exaggerating at all. I could not put this book down

wings / solo paul

Alongside the sexist John and Yoko narrative, Boomers like to propagate a similar myth that Paul met Linda and lost some essential virility, became soy and unable to write good songs... in fact he remained the same rock and roll goofball he was before. Ram in particular is a delightful ode to shaggy domesticity-- you're cooking and drinking wine barefoot, there are babies and dogs running around. No wonder these Reaganite freaks didn't get it
