Lovers Sailor and Lula are on the run from Lula's mom, who has put a contract out on Sailor. When they aren't making burning love to each other, they're weathering a hailstorm of crazed enemies bent on destroying them. David Lynch's surreal comedy is very intense, very weird, and incredibly electric, with unforgettable performances by Diane Ladd and Willem Dafoe (as the infamous Bobby Peru). WILD AT HEART is THE WIZARD OF OZ for the truly twisted.

Product Quotation/Excerpt"This snakeskin jacket symbolizes my individuality and belief in personal freedom."--Sailor (Nicholas Cage) Release NoteDVD Features: Product NotesIn adapting Barry Gifford's colorful novel, David Lynch delivers another jolt of adrenaline to unsuspecting viewers everywhere. WILD AT HEART follows the troubled romance of Sailor (Nicolas Cage) and Lula (Laura Dern), two lovers who struggle to remain together even when fate seems intent on keeping them apart. In this case, fate is Lula's mother, Marietta Fortune (Diane Ladd), a desperate woman who hates Sailor and will do anything to keep him away from her daughter. After Sailor is released from prison for murdering a man--albeit in self-defense--he and Lula embark on a sex-filled, rocking road trip, aware that they are being hunted by one of Marietta's cronies. When they pull off the road in order to hide out in a small trailer park, Sailor befriends Bobby Peru (Willem Dafoe), an incredibly intense war veteran with a rotten set of teeth. Bobby convinces Sailor to help him rob a bank, much to Lula's objections (for she has discovered that she is pregnant). Sailor must decide if he wants to go straight and be there for his child or remain under Bobby's influence and risk returning to jail. Lynch's raucous film contains his trademark visual style, over-the-top dialogue, and pulsating soundtrack, creating another truly distinct picture.
