Industrial Symphony No. 1: The Dream of the Broken Hearted Soundtrack (1990)

Synopsis

Pivoting around the emotionally charged telephone conversation between an unsuspecting Laura Dern, and a devastated but determined Nicolas Cage, the first powerful scene of David Lynch's "Industrial Symphony" ends with a painful breakup. Then, a floating Julee Cruise dressed in white appears out of thin air, inviting us in a palpable, ill-lit, nightmarish hallucination, as the cacophonous sounds of rejection intensify the despair of the heart-broken woman. To portray the scarred, anhydrous landscapes of separation and solitude, Julee Cruise performs hauntingly evocative songs from her 1989 debut album, "Floating into the Night", as well as recordings from the second season of Twin Peaks (1990). The performance was filmed at the Brooklyn Academy of Music Opera House, on November 10, 1989.
