“The recipe for fun is pretty simple raising boys: add to any activity an element of danger, stir in a little exploration, add a dash of destruction, and you’ve got yourself a winner. But God’s design–which he placed in boys as the picture of himself–is a resounding yes. “Don’t climb on that, don’t break anything, don’t be so aggressive, don’t be so noisy, don’t be so messy, don’t make such crazy risks. But the answers to his deepest questions are not to be found on television or in the refrigerator.” Who am I? What am I made of? What am I destined for? It is fear that keeps a man at home where things are neat and orderly and under his control. “Deep in man’s heart are some fundamental questions that simply cannot be answered at the kitchen table. “One of the things he was NEVER NEVER allowed to do, the most exciting of them all, was to go out through the garden gate all by himself and explore the world beyond.” but hey, that's just me.Here are some interesting quotes from “ Wild at Heart” As an FYI: I don’t necessarily agree with all of the ideas and sentiments. Though I honestly don't think this film deserves to stand beside the likes of other winners like "Parasite", "Shoplifters", "Blue is the Warmest Color", or "4 Months, 3 Weeks and 2 Days", I also can't ever imagine being so upset over a film award that I'd boo the recipient. According to IMDb's trivia section on this film, Roger Ebert, who seemed to have a distaste for Lynch (check out his "Blue Velvet" review), booed so loudly that it almost drowned out the cheers when the award was announced. As a side note: it blows my mind that this won the Palme d'Or in 1990. When Lynch is at the peak of his directing powers, his films can prompt me to question and meditate upon the very nature of our reality "Wild at Heart" is just a decent road trip movie with a few really quirky moments and a whole lot of wackos.
It's not bad, it just doesn't do a whole lot for me, especially when compared to Lynch's masterpieces (Twin Peaks TV show, "Eraserhead", "Mulholland Drive", "Inland Empire"). Though I enjoyed my time with Sailor (Nicolas Cage, "Leaving Las Vegas"), Lula (Laura Dern, "Marriage Story"), and all the other various other bizarre characters that populate this weird romantic tale, I can honestly say that this is one of my least favorite Lynch movies. I feel like "Wild at Heart" is one of Lynch's forgotten films, and I can sort of see why.
