Yes, please don't. I try to avoid reading your posts but I already know more about IE than I'd like. I know you're tying to be discreet, but you're not doing a very good job...

And this Emily news is interesting.... Um, I don't know anything...

hey John how are you these days?

if you didn't do it then who mixed the film? did David managed to find someone who understand how to work in that studio?

but you did work on that film right? (recording...rubitts) i saw you on the room to dream DVD.

For Lynch, a career Golden Lion that tastes of redemption and satisfaction: 20 years ago the Lido refused his Blue Velvet.

Therefore, the new Venice Festival director Marco Muller curtseys the Master!

"Take a look at this, mafia!"

"What a tiny satisfaction!"

"Eww..Press people! Where are you, my little ants?!"

"Guys, Sixty is an age!"

"40 too is an age!"

faceintheleaves- Im just trying to answer people's questions as i know how frustrating it is for some of you. I havnt said anything in very much detail at all..you dont have to read my posts you know...I apologise if youve read something you didnt want to. All im trying to do is give you an idea of what the press cant because half of them, i can tell havnt even seen the film because theyre highlighting really stupid things and giving false impressions. As i said yesterday im not saying anymore about the film now...because i dont want to. Again, i apologise if youve read something you didnt want, i did not intend that at all but seriously, i havnt said anything of any true detail i can promise you that. (Im including some final information below for John, about the music...so if you dont want to know then look away now!)

John- Im sorry..i think its because ive been typing too quickly and been in a rush. Ill start again...

What Im trying to say is that the music over the clips of Rabbits in the film is the same as the music over the orginal short series. It hasnt changed. Therefore, if you and David scored the original, then thats what is in the film. I wrongly presumed it was Angelo's music. However, i distinctly remember thinking, during IE that there was a piece of music that did sound very much like Angelo. This piece wasnt scored over a Rabbits scene, but over another. I cant be sure that it was him, but to me it sounded as if it could be. However, again i did not see his name on the credits. I hope im making more sense now. Basically, im really unsure whether any Angelo Badalamenti music is in the film!

Iar, I've read there is a little string track composed by Badalmenti in the soundtrack, although he is not acredited. So you were right, there's some of his music in the film.

yes, lynch said so in the press conference.

I hope it is....anyone going to check it out?? And possibly sabotage it if its a clip from IE! Cant imagine how anyone got hold of anything though...

Oh and im glad that i now appear to be making sense R.E. the Angelo Badalamenti music!!

It's a fake. Actually, it's a gay porn amateur movie. There's no rabbits (sorry), polish people or women in trouble

I was in Venice and I saw with Justin to see in the morning INLAND EMPIRE. I watched the film at the ceremony after and I went to the DAVID LYNCH'S PARTY.

You can read my review (it's in french, sorry) here and I also posted a comment under the article "Lire les commentaires".

I took French 1 and 2 in college but that's not good enough for translation of movie reviews.  So I went to Google 'translation tools' to help me read Sophie's article.  Between the original and the computer generated English, I think I got the essence.  What cracks me up is that Inland Empire translates to "Inland Worsens."

All in all, I think it's fair to say, as has already been written, that Inland Empire is getting 'mixed reviews' at best.  Sophie's position as a long time Lynch devotee combined with having seen the film twice gives added weight to her perceptions for me.

I gotta say though, my favorite part was the confirmation of the Emily rumor!

This is a short review without spoilers from IMDB message board. The guy who signs it, Jimmy19, gives the film 10/10 stars.

"I saw INLAND EMPIRE at the Venice Film Festival and I think it's incredible... surely the most strange Lynch's film. A terrible nightmare of about 3 hours! I love Lynch's films and I think that INLAND EMPIRE resumes his whole filmography! And I want to underline also the interpretation of Laura Dern. She's absolutely fantastic! You can't pretend to understand completely the story (it's more confused than Lost Highway and Mulholland Drive...) but you'll be captured by the sounds, the lights, the changes of rhythm... David has written the screenplay day by day and also the actors couldn't understand what they were doing... I think you should see this wonderful film of one of the best contemporary director."

That would fail to explain Sophie's disappointment, Mr. Silencio.  I gather she has been a longtime fan and if I interpret her review corrrectly, after seeing the film twice, it was not to her taste.
