even allow for eraserhead and blue velvet and wild at heart and this film probably feature the best work of frederick elmes life ( cinematography ) . the transition from location to location be beautifully construct while a series of intimate painterly portrait and introduce you to the vulnerable underbelly of each city . this also apply to the cut scene between dialogue . at time i be drool . the character be generally so well draw that we can even forgive winona ryder unconvincing tom boy mechanic . each twenty minute story be just long enough to engross and short enough to leave you happy that you do not waste your time and youre ready for the next . and there real comedy too . farce and circus buffoonery and even belly laugh . i must admit and by the last story i do begin to tire a little of the format . it all finish with not so subtle pathos ( which i resist ) which highlight the unrelenting pain of life . absolutely beautiful . highly recommended .
