David LynchThree hoursReverse Shot Presents

Laura Dern plays an actress whose comeback role pulls her into a cursed production and Hollywood's seedy underside, in David Lynch's final theatrical feature, written scene by scene as he shot it on crude digital video. Reverse Shot's critics picked it as one of the 21st-century essentials, and a dark theater is the only proper way to surrender to it. If you've been saving Lynch's strangest film, this Friday-evening show is the moment.

What to expect

A three-hour screening in the Redstone Theater with general-admission seating. Expect a devoted Lynch crowd and a film that plays more like a dream than a story.
