The Movie: Lost Highway (1997)
What Is It?: The
first film in David Lynch’s unofficial fugue-state trilogy features Bill
Pullman as a sax player who transforms into Balthazar Getty after axe-murdering
wife Patricia Arquette. It’s Lynch’s most dated and heartless film, but it’s
also quite scary and the scene where Mr. Eddy chases down a reckless driver is
masterful and hilarious.
Why Today?: Today
is national saxophone day.
