As long as we're going along those lines, this summer, I wrote a critical
analysis of Blue Velvet for my Intro to Cinema class, and in doing some
research, I came across an article in "Literature/Film Quarterly".  I can't
remember the date, but I think it was Fall '85.

Anyhow, the whole issue had Blue Velvet papers in it, and one of them focused
on how Lynch parallels the Blue Velvet story to "The Wizard of Oz".
