About Expanding The Classics: Lost Highway
Hounded by mysterious VHS tapes of himself and his wife in their home and plagued by violent visions, a musician finds himself suddenly convicted of murder. The mystery deepens when the man vanishes, only to be replaced by a young mechanic with a completely different life, but one which may overlap with the musician’s fears.
Lynch’s first film project after completing the original run of Twin Peaks, Lost Highway is an essential work from the filmmaker, taking the surreal horror of Blue Velvet and Fire Walk With Me and delving deeper into it on a wider scale. Starring Bill Pullman, Patricia Arquette and Balthazar Getty, the film originally confounded audiences but has since been revisited and reassessed as an audacious and fascinating work.
The screening will be introduced by film academic Sabina Stent with captions included on screen.
Screening as part of our Expanding The Classics season, offering classic films with descriptive subtitles, audio description or showing in a relaxed environment.
