Blue Velvet (1986) – a 35mm presentation

Hoezo in KINO

A young Kyle Maclachlan slowly gets drawn into a dark underworld, on the trail of a mysterious nightclub singer called Dorothy, played by a magical Isabella Rosselini. Blue Velvet explores the contrast between purity and depravity in a sharp satire of the suburban American Dream. The film deeply divided the critics at its release in 1986 but by now is almost universally deemed a masterpiece.
