Lost Highway/Awesome

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


  • Awesome Music: Trent Reznor worked with with longtime Lynch collaborator Angelo Badalamenti to produce a jazzy, dischordant and electronically tinged soundtrack. But perhaps the finest moment belongs to David Bowie... "Funny how secrets travel..."
  • Comedic Sociopathy: The entire scene with Mr. Eddy going for a drive. Running a tailgater off the road and Pistol-Whipping him just so he can give him a lecture about road safety zig-zags between awesome, terrifying and hilarious in a way that I can only describe as "Lynchian".
    • According to Michael J. Anderson, this was a case of Real Life Writes the Plot, as Lynch wanted to do all those things to someone who tailgated him one day when he was out.
