About
David Lynch’s furious and flamboyant road movie is a twisted homage to the place of The Wizard of Oz in the American psyche. Sailor (Nicolas Cage) and Lula (Laura Dern) are star-crossed lovers seeking a brighter future and fleeing Lula’s unhinged wicked witch of a mother Marietta Fortune (played by Dern’s actual mother, Diane Ladd). Together, they hit the highway, encountering a surreal cast of sinister characters, but never turning away from love.
Wild at Heart will screen from an archival 35mm print.
