I first watched Inland Empire on a flight to Cape Town to attend a workshop. Despite its 3-hour length, the first thing I did when I got to my hotel was to watch the whole film again. It may have a more unusual structure than some of Lynch's other creations, but the effect of this film on me was like a sledgehammer. Laura Dern's character(s) are all trapped or limited in different ways by men who face no such limits. The whole thing is a kaleidoscope of patriarchal control.
