I would definitely have to disagree with what you said about Wild at Heart and
Fire Walk With Me lacking any beauty.  I think that Lynch's purpose behind both
these movies is to shock the audience with glimpses of the evil in the world,
Big Tuna in WAH, and the Black Lodge in FWWM, and then show how good can
prevail in spite of these evils.  In both of these movies, angels appear at the
end and reveal love and goodness to the main characters.  I think the message
here is that if someone loves you, you stand a chance to escape the evils and
find happiness.  This is similar to the plot of Blue Velvet.

P.S.: Does anyone know the title of the requiem at the end of FWWM?
