- While walking home from visiting his hospitalized father, college student Jeffrey Beaumont finds a severed human ear in a field.

After the passing of David Lynch earlier this year, we thought there was no better time than now to discuss one of his films again. This Hitchcock-ian thriller blends psychological horror with elements of noir, and showcases the themes and filmmaking techniques that Lynch would go on to explore on his later works lole Twin Peaks, Lost Highway, and Mulholland Drive. Blue Velvet divided critics upon its release for its dark themes and graphic sexuality, but has since been lauded as a classic and is considered of Lynch’s most iconic films.
Blue Velvet stars Kyle McLachlan, Isabella Rossellini, Dennis Hopper, Laura Dern, and Dean Stockwell
