On it's release Blue Velvet (1986) caused a bit of a stir. Initially shown at the Montréal World Film Festival in August 1986, and at the Toronto Festival of Festivals, the film received both a chorus of boos and cheers. So pretty standard film festival reactions then!
The movie contains some very graphic and shocking scenes of violence and a performance from Dennis Hopper than will live long in the memory.
The Dads try to make some sense of it all, and leave with heightened anticipation for our next David Lynch instalment.
We love to hear from our listeners! By which I mean we tolerate it. If it hasn't been completely destroyed yet you can usually find us on twitter @dads_film, on Facebook Bad Dads Film Review, on email at baddadsjsy@gmail.com or on our website baddadsfilm.com.
