Lost Highway was shot by David Lynch in his best creative period. Again, this is an apparent puzzle that has no solution. And with characters who are not who they seem. This film was often blamed for its incomprehensibility, the impossibility of an interpretation key, the absence of a point, and ignoring the viewer.
