I love David Lynch, and besides Eraserhead and mabye Mulholland Dr., this is my favorite of his. Of course, with its unusual plot, both weird and philosophical, it isn't for everybody, and it definitely isn't for kids.

What Parents Need to Know
About Lost Highway
Parents need to know that this film is extremely violent and contains numerous explicitly sexual scenes. It's also confusing and disturbing, without any resolution.

Families Can Talk About
- Families can talk about what it all means, which is pretty hard to decipher. Film buffs and Lynch fans might analyze the filmmaker's techniques, particularly the use of sound and color. But this film is hardly family fare, nor does it lend itself to much discussion.
