This excited (though secondhand) report just landed in our inbox:
David Lynch RIGHT NOW is sitting on the corner of Hollywood and La Brea with a cow on a leash and a picture of Laura Dern that says For Your Consideration. He also has a sign that says "without cows there would be no cheese in the Inland Empire". This is one of those things that a person needs to see. I wish I wasn't chained to a desk.
Surely there are readers out there who can either chew through their shackled limbs and head on down to have a look, or who at least have chains long enough to reach a window, enabling them to either send in a cameraphone shot or a painstakingly detailed, first-person narration of the suitably surreal publicity stunt unfolding in Hollywood. You know where to find us.
UPDATE: You really never let us down. Yup, the scene pretty much looks exactly as Lynchian as previously described.










Comments
What time was/is this?
There can be only one!
According to the first commenter on IMDB, "the movie is not unwatchable as some critics had said." So I'm there!
Plus, it includes performances by "Mulholland Drive" couple Laura Harring and Naomi Watts, leading us to hope for some of the same hotness. Although Watts apparently plays a talking rabbit, so maybe not so much.
Is "Inland Empire" like that miniseries, "Fresno"?
An inland world without cheese is only second in emptiness to an inland world without butter.
David is drunk today, yes?
I love this crazy bastard.
No matter how much celebrity gossip I fill my brain with it, none of it ever made me want to go anywhere near Hollywood; until, this, post.
I always thought Laura looked more equine than bovine but that's just me.
Except that sign clearly reads: Without cheese there would be no Inland Empire
But who's the mysterious other figure? Isabella Rossellini?
What, no 'Honk if you love Lynch' sign?
The movie IS unwatchable and f'in long!
