The shooting of David Lynch’s neo-noir classic is recalled by Bill Pullman and Arquette, who had to watch many of her scenes through her fingers
I had to drop out of Boxing Helena, Jennifer Lynch’s debut film. But I had a good connection with her; when her father, David, starting talking about making Lost Highway, she said: what about this Pullman guy? Early on, someone asked him why he cast me. With a smile on his face, he said: “Well, Bill struck me as the kind of guy who could get himself into a lot of trouble.” He would repeat that, like a mantra.
