Review of Wild Palms

Wild Palms (1993)
10/10
neuromancer meets scientology in a snowcrash
7 January 2003
Ok, apart from the fact that I read an awful lot of books, movies and particularly good movies do carry me away as well.

THIS is one heck of a movie.

Robert Loggia excells and makes a start at his appearance in 'lost highway'.

Why scientology ? The Fathers are conservative, granted, but they really want to manage your soul in 'the Church'.

Guess what, windows is the system ;-)

The movie is beautifully done, the plot twists and turns, William Gibson [none other but himself] has a cameo, and grudgingly concedes that he indeed was the first to coin the term.

The women in this movie are the true protagonists [excuse me ladies, I know it's never different, Ollie puts it where you can't ignore it. In your face]...

A very good movie, highly recommended.

I hope this summary entices you to see the movie. You will not be indifferent !
