A Complete review of David Lynch's work (26 movies items)

" Cast : John Hurt, Anthony Hopkins, Anne Bancroft, John Gielgud What was it about? A Victorian surgeon rescues a heavily disfigured man who is mistreated while scraping a living as a side-show freak. Behind his monstrous facade, there is revealed a person of intelligence and sensitivity. My two cents: When talking about Lynch's career, it seems that this movie has been a little bit forgotten.

"8.11 En ole Lynchiltä nähnyt tätä ennen yhtään elokuvaa, lukuunottamatta Eraserheadia ja tämä on tosiaan aivan täysin eri maailmasta.

Henkilöhahmot ovat hyvin"

"28.09.2012 "I am not an elephant! I am not an animal! I am a human being! I am a man!" This was a fantastic film. It had me hooked from the very beginning all the way to the end. The direction by David Lynch was just so great. Every singe scene in the film was just so stunning. The actors were also all perfect. John Hurt and Anthony Hopkins both gave some of the greatest performances of their careers. This is also one of the best looking blu-ray movies i have ever seen. There was no grain on"
