WILD AT HEART (1990)

About the Film

Crime, Drama, Thriller | 125 MIN | US

WILD AT HEART follows the tumultuous journey of Sailor Ripley (Nicolas Cage) and Lula Pace Fortune (Laura Dern), two young lovers on the run from Lula’s overbearing mother, who will stop at nothing to keep them apart. As they flee through the American South, they encounter a series of bizarre characters and violent threats, all while navigating their passionate and rebellious love.

Blending surrealism, dark humor, and a twisted take on the American road movie, WILD AT HEART is a wild ride through Lynch’s uniquely offbeat vision.
