David Lynch's Wild at Heart (1990)

Original title: Wild at Heart

dir: David Lynch

Lovers Lula (Dern) and Sailor (Cage) are separated after he is jailed for killing – in self-defense – a man who attacked him with a knife who was hired by Lula's mother, Marietta Fortune (Ladd). Upon Sailor's release, Lula picks him up at the prison where she hands him his snakeskin jacket and he happily accepts. They go to a hotel where she reserved a room, make love and go to see the heavy metal band Powermad. While they are dancing at the club, an anonymous slam dancer bumps into Lula and begins to dance and grind into her. Sailor gets the band to stop and tells the man to apologize. The man tells him that he looks "like a clown in that stupid jacket". They fight and Sailor wins. He tells the man to apologize. Sailor gets the band to immediately launch into "Love Me" by Elvis as he sings lead vocal. Later, back in the room, after making love again, Sailor and Lula finally decide to run away to California, breaking Sailor's parole. Lula's mother arranges for a private detective, Johnnie Farragut (Harry Dean Stanton) to find them and bring them back. He agrees because he is in love with her. Unbeknown to Johnnie, however, Marietta also hires gangster Marcelles Santos (J.E. Freeman) to track them, and eliminate Sailor.
