Part of David Lynch: A Retrospective
A Woman in Trouble. An actress stars in a remake of a cursed film, and every opened door fragments what we understand as reality. Nikki (Laura Dern) opens the door, stepping through it, and into the infinite sprawl of identity. INLAND EMPIRE is a Whitman’s sampler from the heart of David Lynch — spanning the rundown streets of Hollywood after dark, ancient Polish studios filled with intrigue, a web series populated with anthropomorphized rabbits, and the dangerous frontier that is an inquisitive heart.
