Released at the height of Twin Peaks's popularity, David Lynch's follow-up to Blue Velvet won the Cannes Film Festival's Palme d'Or, but inexplicably failed to win an American audience. Based on the novel by Barry Gifford, it lacks the originality of Lynch's other films, but it's still a wild ride: wacky, occasionally inventive and always violent. It's the story of Sailor (Nicolas Cage) and Lula (Laura Dern), who are in love and on the run from Lula's vengeful mama (Diane Ladd, Dern's real-life mother).

Synopsis: A violent, erotic, and often hilarious tale of lovers on the run - Sailor, a wanna-be Elvis, and his sizzling hot girlfriend Lula take wild ride to escape detectives and hit men hired by Lula's crazy mom. Directed by David Lynch.

The Trevanions are newlyweds who fell in love after Danny (Stephen Tompkinson, Brassed Off, Ballykissangel) lost his first wife to cancer and Sarah (Amanda Holden, The Grimleys) lost hers "to a nineteen-year-old." But all is not well in the new household. Trouble simmers between Sarah and stepdaughter Rosie, still hurting from her mother's death. Danny, a suburban vet, has a better way with animals than he does with stepson Evan. And Sarah's daughter Olivia, the peacemaking third child, insists on calling Danny "Mr. Trevanion." Tired of treating pampered pets and seeking escape from domestic woes, Danny takes the family on a trip to Africa. Vacation turns to vocation, however, when they decide to restore a rundown game reserve deep in the African bush. As the Trevanions help the wild animals around them, they begin to heal their own wounds as well.
