David Lynch’s mesmerizing, hallucinatory visit to the uncharted territories of the inland empire displays all of the master’s strengths, and yields great rewards to those who are willing to leave their egos at the door and go along for the ride. Filmed over a two-and-half-year period, Inland Empire may be his most extraordinary film project yet, a culmination of all of the themes touched on in his other masterpieces, Eraserhead, Blue Velvet and Mulholland Drive. Here Lynch is at the top of his powers—Inland is beautiful and terrifying and and funny—an example of an artist peeling back the layers of his own psyche, and in the process, like Hitchcock did in Vertigo, creating great art out of revealing his obsessions.
