<p>Lost Higway is a really good movie. You keep watching it event it seem totally obscure. This is one of the strength of David Lynch.</p>
<p>The first time I watched Lost Highway, I was a bit lost.
Here some of explanations of Lost Highway I found on the Internet:</p>
<ul>
<li>Fred make a pact with the devil incarnated by the <em>Mysterious Man</em>,</li>
<li><em>Mysterious Man</em> is a video camera,</li>
<li>Just the first part of the story is real. The rest is in the Fred’s imagination,</li>
</ul>
<p>and I don’t speak about many point of view found in forums.</p>
<p>I finished to find two good site talking about this movie. But none of them still totally convinced me:</p>
<ul>
<li>the first is <ahref="http://www.mediacircus.net/lh.html">mediacircus</a>,</li>
<li>the second which state almost the same interpretation about the movie and explain with even more details is on <ahref="http://www.jasonsweb.com/LostHighway/main.htm">jasonweb</a></li>
</ul>
<p>Nonetheless, this movie must be watched knowing you’ll cannot resolve the solution. At his best you’ll can suggest an interpretation close to the one of David Lynch.</p>
<p>I believe I had found a coherent interpretation which allow to follow the movie <strong>without being totally lost</strong>. I believed it can give the keys necessary to make its own idea of the movie.</p>

<p>Like the protagonist, everybody see what he want to see in this movie. It is an invitation to think. Watch this movie is a little like watch a Rorschach’s test. What do we see in it? Everybody put its own personnality in the interpretation of the movie.</p>
<ul>
<li>If you are mystic, you’ll see in the mysterious man a devil,</li>
<li>If you are more psychanalytics, you’ll see an inconscient part of the protagonist…</li>
</ul>
<p>Generally, we stay in this movie and we fail explaining everything. There is almost always a point that don’t fit within the interpretation of the movie. This is why trying to find a unique good interpretation of this movie is a mistake.</p>
<p>I give an <strong>interpretation</strong> and not an <strong>explanation</strong>. Just to tell my vision of the movie should be very different from yours.
There is certainly many coherent explanations.</p>
<p>I write this post because I believe I had found an interpretation which seems coherent for most of the movie.</p>
