Is David Lynch's 1980 historical drama about Joseph Merrick one of his least Lynch-like films? Is it a straight-forward, sentimental, and even manipulative dramatization about a real-life tragedy? ...Or is it a quintessentially Lynch-like indictment of the culture of globalized, industrialized capitalism we still find ourselves living under, and how that culture has warped us to the point that dehumanize anyone we cannot mechanize for our own selfish ends, eradicating even the possibility of true compassion!?

Did we have different opinions?! Of course! Did we discuss those opinions intelligently? Perhaps! Is this the usual description writer? Who could say?! The answer to some of these questions, this time on TRYLOVE the movie podcast!
