Blue Velvet The Criterion Collection
Home from college, Jeffrey Beaumont (Kyle MacLachlan) makes an unsettling discovery: a severed human ear, lying in a field. In the mystery that follows, by turns terrifying and darkly funny, writer-director David Lynch burrows deep beneath the picturesque surfaces of small-town life. Driven to investigate, Jeffrey finds himself drawing closer to his fellow amateur sleuth, Sandy Williams (Laura Dern), as well as their person of interest, lounge singer Dorothy Vallens (Isabella Rossellini)—and facing the fury of Frank Booth (Dennis Hopper), a psychopath who will stop at nothing to keep Dorothy in his grasp. With intense performances and hauntingly powerful scenes and images, Blue Velvet is an unforgettable vision of innocence lost, and one of the most influential American films of the past few decades.

Made in 1986, right after the flop that was "Dune," this is a great mystery thriller full of pitch black humor, romance and interesting ideas and characters. What's really striking watching it again now in 2022 is to see where a lot of the style and themes explored further in "Twin Peaks" started developing here - like the sleepy small town hiding some dark and crazy secrets. The characters of Detective Williams and his daughter Sandy played by Laura Dern feel very similar in their personality to the characters of Dr. Hayward and daughter Donna Hayward in "Twin Peaks." And of course the mix of 1950's aesthetics with late 1980's, a detail that also connect the two.
Is "Blue Velvet" David Lynch most accessible film? Not sure, but it is definitely his most linear and logical film not as dreamlike as, say, "Mulholland Drive" or "Twin Peaks" for that matter, but full of all that cozy weirdness that is so Lynch and that I, at least, really love. I of course recommend it to anyone who hasn't seen it but is into that, and I of course recommend the luxurious Criterion release.
I was a big fan of this film upon it's original 1986 release. Having moved on in my personal taste and vision of what I want to see I'd put this along side of Mullholland Dr. as Lynch's best films. Grabbing a huge slice of a nation's last brush of innocence meets wickedness beyond compare, we witness the undoing of characters new and original as yet never seen before in filmic history.
A romance and love letter film at heart, Lynch gets all the small details right. Stuff he would later abuse in the mediocre Twin Peaks to no ends. This film reeks of authenticity, originality, and just enough intrigue to keep a Hitchcockian edge and look throughout. Made for peanuts and a small tight crew more and most have never been made before over a singular human ear. The bonus extras on the Criterion blu - ray are substantial and resemble a constant retelling over and over, each original in it's own beckoning call. This is a must for fans and newbies alike.
Getting to the point: Blue Velvet . . . blu ray . . . Criterion . . . director-authorized remaster. That ought to about cover it. Little surprise, the film presentation itself in about as close to flawless as one could hope given current technology. Vibrant colors, deep blacks, audio that ably ranges from a whisper to a scream.
Two niggles. The extras are great, and the number of them are somewhat surprising given Lynch's typical antipathy to such "fluff," but my player hiccupped at one point in the contemporaneous Blue Velvet Revisited documentary. But that could be due to the age of my top-quality but aging Oppo machine. Also, some will be bewildered and perhaps annoyed by the lack of chapters in the feature. Be advised that was Lynch's intention and is typical of his approved releases. You don't have to like it (I don't much), but it is what it is.

even better than the 2010 reissue by MGM
Criterion gave the film a new 4k HD transfer which looks amazing incredible No Grain no Dirt looks prestine 10/10
the sound quality mix is the same thou 5.1 master mix plus 2.0 master mix option aswell
EXTRAS, not only is all the extras carried over from the 2010 MGM blu-ray
plus a new retrospective Documentary filmed just for this Criterion blu-ray which makes this reissue
all this content on 1 Blu-ray Disc worth buying 100%, oh packaging is Foldout Digi-pack not plastic case
now being a Criterion reissue it's ofcourse region A locked so you need a region free player
cause Australian blu-ray players are region B only the players sold from the common retailers
but if you a big fan and want it anyway, then theres 3 shipping options
Priority express courier option which is most fastest 3-5 days to delivery from the US
but the cost is roughly $30AUD on top of the blu-ray price
or if your a amazon prime member than Expedited shipping option is free of charge for orders over $49 thou
the only catch with expedited shipping is the Depatch wait time is 24-48hrs just for 1 blu-ray to ship
from the date you've placed the order which is Disgusting pure Laziness by amazon staff i think
and theres 3rd ship option just plain standard shipping wait time is the longest from 10-15 work days
so your choice which option you want, if you have spare $30 to burn just on expres shipping then do that
anyway 5 stars for this criterion blu-ray no Doubt about it worth the cash buying
