The emptiness and absurdity of the world

The killing tire is actually a metaphor. The murderer is not the knife, but the person who uses the knife; the murderer is not the tire, but the user. Moreover, the film also anthropomorphizes the tire itself, born in the soil, stumbled at the beginning, stained with blood several times, and murdered into madness.
The director experimentally placed the movie viewers in the movie itself. A group of people watched a live director's movie in the desert simulating the state of watching a movie in a movie theater. The abstraction of the content and form of the movie can be seen. Moreover, Brecht's "distancing effect" is constantly used in the film to constantly remind the audience (including the audience in the movie): we are watching a fake movie. As the sheriff said: everything is fake. What I didn't expect was that the fake became real, and finally the tire (an actor) got out of control and killed another actor.
As said at the beginning of the film: everything in the film is for no reason. This in itself satirizes the falsity of the film industry, including the disorganization and illogicality of a series of writers, directors, and actors. The criticism of the audience in the movie is also sharp, the director's sentence: animal. As well as the indifference between father and son, rampant piracy, etc., everything is illogical and beyond common sense. It shows the appreciation psychology of audiences who have different preferences and are difficult to please.

    The subtitle says it's a masterpiece, but my brother really has no patience to watch such a boring movie. In my eyes, this is a bad movie!

    Stop being a fool, okay, Lynch? Completely insulting, not at the level of a dimension at all. This shit cult has only one theme: you audience are all fucking idiots, big idiots, super idiots.

  • Man in wheelchair: Excuse me, I hate to be a bother, but... the way I look at it, this scene makes no sense at all. Not that it was great to begin with, but at least I understood it. Now, it's just, uh, totally confusing.
