INLAND EMPIRE (USA, Poland, 2006) ☆☆☆☆☆
David Lynch's latest movie took more than three years to complete. Shot partly in USA and Poland, the story involves actress Nikki Lake, who lands a part in a new Hollywood movie. Little does she know that the movie is actually a remake. The original movie was never completed, apparently someone put a gypsy spell on the production and crew. From this point on, David Lynch takes us to different places. Nikki Lake starts to fall in love with one of the actors and her husband begins to suspect. Sometimes you do not know if you are watching part of the movie they are shooting, or we are inside Nikki's mind, or perhaps we are watching the gypsy fairytale that becomes the basis for the movie's curse.
Even more dificult to understand than his previous movies, David Lynch takes a huge step in releasing the movie in an almost three hours long version. Some scenes are in Polish, played by real local Polish actors. This surreal experiment is worth every minute. Forget about understanding the movie, just let yourself go.
