“Lost Highway” (Criterion)
I remember when “Lost Highway” was released a quarter-century ago between the success of “Twin Peaks” and “Mulholland Dr.” that it was seen as something of a disappointment, even to David Lynch fans. Like a lot of his work, it has grown in critical esteem over the years, and it’s a film that I find richer and more fascinating every time I get a chance to watch it. From now on, any viewings of this twisted gem will be through a fantastic 4K upgrade of the Criterion edition of “Lost Highway.” Co-written by Lynch and the great Barry Gifford, it’s the tale of a musician (Bill Pullman) who, well, I couldn’t even begin. Patricia Arquette and Robert Blake co-star with Pullman, who is then replaced with Balthazar Getty, who leads a seemingly different life altogether. Lynch is playing with mood and tension instead of narrative here, and this film that gets lodged in your psyche in ways that are designed to make you feel uncomfortable. The Criterion edition is a must-own for even casual Lynch aficionados.

It’s hard to believe but it’s also undeniably true: In 2022, the biggest movie star in the world is Mr. Tom Cruise. The legendary actor bet on himself and his fan base, holding “Top Gun: Maverick” even as the studio pressured him to release it in a streaming form during the pandemic. He knew that fans of “Top Gun” would come out when the time is right, but even Cruise couldn’t have guessed that this would become the biggest film of his career, making $1.5 billion worldwide. I have a shocking confession: After a summer of personal setbacks that led to almost zero time to get to the theater, I haven’t been able to see it yet. I usually wait until viewing myself to put something in this column, but it came in just this week, and I wanted to make sure readers knew it was out there so they can get a copy of their own. I have a feeling a lot of people will. (And maybe I’ll come back and offer my critical thoughts after the weekend, but the truth is you know if you want to add this one to your collection or not. I’m basically the last person in the world to see it.)
