eraserhead (1977)


"Did you and Mary have sexual intercourse?"
Henry Spencer (Jack Nance) stumbles through his life cowed by his industrial environment, his angry girlfriend (Charlotte Stewart), and the neverending cries of their new born mutated child. The only distraction is the radiator woman (Laurel Near), who appears to him and sings about the happiness of heaven.
The film that established Lynch as a maveric genius loaded down with neuroses and more than willing to pour them out onto the screen.
