2.6 - Blue Velvet

The Mikes try to solve a mystery and get weird with David Lynch's Blue Velvet.

Listen as Mike Field and Mike Butler breakdown the plot, explain the reasoning behind some of the film's iconic scenes. Also listen to them discuss and explain David Lynch's strange, eclectic style of filmmaking and how Lynch is able to use this style as a powerful tool to evoke real emotion and make his films stay with an audience long after the credits roll.

So huff your amyl nitrate, grab your popcorn and soda, please notice the exits at the front and rear of the auditorium, and settle down for Forgotten Cinema

About the Podcast

Forgotten Cinema
A podcast about forgotten films that deserve a second chance
Welcome to Forgotten Cinema! Each episode, Mike Field and Mike Butler highlight a film that for a variety of reasons was forgotten by audiences. Whether it be because a more popular movie was released at the same time or the movie simply didn’t catch on with an audience in the its initial run. We’ll discuss what we love about the movie or perhaps don’t love about it and decide whether the movie is worth a revisit.
