My interpretation is that Fred killed his wife after finding out she had an affair and the film is Fred's mind slowly going insane and denying to itself that he killed her. The first half is him trying to imagine a scenario where he didn't do it and was framed, the second half is him straight-up forgetting his old personality and trying to create a new scenario where he's completely guilt-free. The mystery man appears with a video camera near the end because the camera represents objective truth – Fred says he dislikes cameras because he "prefers to remember things his way", as opposed to how they really happened. I see the mystery man as more of a force for good than bad as he spends the film trying to make Fred face up, so he's the part of his personality that knows that he's done.

The end of the film, with him jolting, is him being executed on the electric chair, so he dies without every accepting what he did.

Seriously though Lynch is ****ing insane so I don't believe my interpretation as face because I know he often just likes ****ing with people

Did you see the new Twin Peaks?

actually that isnt bad.
it meets a lot of good points of the film and covers well.

very good.

i have never seen twin peaks.
i cant handle lynch anymore.

Thanks, man. I analysed the film from a Jungian perspective and went into quite a bit of detail so I'm glad my theory holds up to someone who's seen the film a bunch.

I've become way too obsessed with Lynch, or at least have been in the recent past, I've got to a point where I almost need films to **** me over emotionally, mentally or spiritually to truly love them awehuhs

I remember now how into film you were, your collection was badass back then. An inspiration on my own expansive collection. I'd be interested to hear your top 5 or top 10

this me but instead of 2012 its more like 2003

Your nose doesn't even have nostrils.

I have a bunch of favourite songs and often get stuck on a few for a while but I push myself to listen to so much new stuff constantly that I don't usually get bogged down for too long

Although sometimes I go a bit overboard with specific artists

i only have a few core favorites which i (mostly) never got bored of. i like a lot of other stuff, but they come and go in phases.

I could never listen to the same stuff that much, not without loads of other stuff to go back to. Like I have my Big Faves but I'd get genuinely bored of them after a while
