I should also mention, Wild at Heart won the Palm d'Or at Cannes the year of its release. I'm not sure, exactly, when David Lynch's name became a household word, his films universally known, but I kinda feel it was right around this period of Twin Peaks and Wild at Heart, and it may have been the general accessibility in a market that was totally onboard with a hard-R rating at the time, that settled audiences on "yeah, that dude is all right." Instead it leaned into where Lynch was headed with his other films, grounded in a crime-book road movie.Īs non-standard-issue of a movie as it may have been for the era (the same era that was giving us Doc Hollywood and The Hard Way), it's also practically a CBS movie-of-the-week in comparison to, say, Eraserhead. It had mostly a different cast (and one day I'll try to parse what Sheryl Lee and Sherilyn Fenn mean to Lynch), no quirky cops. No magical mysteries with owls and whatnot. I didn't see the movie in theaters, but I rented the movie almost immediately when it showed up at the local videorama to try to get a bit more of whatever I was getting out of Twin Peaks. Wild at Heart (1990) was the David Lynch movie that arrived in conjunction with Twin Peaks fervor.
