   Wild At Heart (1990) Part II

   It really is The Wizard of Oz: escape from the perceived smallness of circumstance out into the technicolor wonder of youth. Sailor is Lula’s Oz, and she his. Oz is an energy, a belief in beauty. But life is a process of gradually seeing the world is only flats, and behind them, strung-out stagehands are trading drugs for blowjobs and and angling for overtime to make rent and dreaming of a dreamless night in the arms of a cold sixer. There are no flying monkeys: there are only hyenas. There is no Tin Man—only heartless men with axes, and shambling Scarecrows driven mad by the world, and vicious cowards, and when you see all that, the poppy field starts to look pretty good, and the Emerald City starts to feel a long way away… Patreon.com/QuillAndFilm measuringflickspodcast@gmail.com
