Wild at Heart (1990)
6/10
A corny 90s Bonnie and Clyde
23 April 2020
This film is very violent and raunchy in a corny 90s way. It kinda feels like David Lynch was going through a phase when he made this one, it has no lack of weirdness though, so that's always something you can expect from him.

The perfomrances are very overacted which I think is part of its charm, I don't find it as intriguing to look for hidden meanings or symbolism in this film so I'm not going to mention any. I can't imagine anyone saying this is the best Lynch film but it's an interesting watch if you happen to stubble upon it.

If you strip away the premise of the hitmen and neurotic mothers you will essentially find that at its core this film is about a couple running away from something that might seperate them. (Bonnie and Clyde?) With a side of trauma as a secondary theme.

A 6/10 from me.
