Lost Highway
1997 134mins France, USA (18) Neo Noir

From this inventory of imagery, Lynch fashions two separate but intersecting stories, one about a jazz musician (Bill Pullman), tortured by the notion that his wife is having an affair, who suddenly finds himself accused of her murder. The other is a young mechanic (Balthazar Getty) drawn into a web of deceit by a temptress who is cheating on her gangster boyfriend. These two tales are linked by the fact that the women in both are played by the same actress (Patricia Arquette).

Frustrated that someone is killing his cattle, John hires a pair of ranch hands, Burt and Curt, to find the rustlers.
