David Lynch: Wild at Heart

Shot after the pilot of Twin Peaks and released at the height of the show’s popularity, David Lynch's Wild at Heart is a scarifying road movie starring Nicolas Cage and Laura Dern.

Star-crossed lovers Lula (Dern) and Sailor (Cage) are pursued across the American landscape by all manner of horrors. Most of which are unleashed by Lula's unhinged mother (Diane Ladd), a woman scorned who will stop at nothing to destroy Sailor.

Rather than deliver a juicy, pulpy crime story, Lynch offers up a sun-bleached, heavy metal twist on The Wizard of Oz, complete with witches, yellow brick roads and the clicking heels of ruby slippers.

Also starring Harry Dean Stanton, Isabella Rossellini, and Willem Dafoe, and featuring a haunting score by Angelo Badalamenti.

QFT and David Lynch go together like coffee and cherry pie. This summer, in celebration of his life and work, QFT are pulling back the red curtain on Lynch's body of work, from the wild at heart to the weird on top.
