TRANSGRESSION AND VIOLENCE THROUGH THE PRISM OF FILM NARRATIVE IN LOST HIGHWAY BY DAVID LYNCH

Summary/Abstract: This study aims to explain the structure of desire, the object of desire, fantasy, transgression and violence in the film narrative of Lost Highway by David Lynch. By analyzing cinema in detail through the prism of David Bordwell and Edward Brannigan’s cognitive narratology and the notion of transgression through the prism of Michel Foucault’s philosophy, the study approaches the interpretation of the divided world of the main character by analyzing the desire directed at a fatally attractive female figure, of marriage with frustrated sexual relations, as well as the unknown aspects of the Other’s desire. In the obstruction to enter the inner world of the Other, the main character is a prisoner of frustrations and blockages, impotence at the level of sexual and other relations. Parallel to the burden of obstructed and blocked penetration into the Other that should provide satisfaction is an effort to understand and then mark the Other as the cause of it. The object of desire that is the femme fatale is, at the same time, the object of suspicion and infidelity. At the moment when the destruction of the object of desire by murder becomes the goal of the subject of desire, a structural division of the narrative and the person takes place. In the second part of the narration, the gaps of the first part of the narration are revealed in a new world, product of the imagination. In it, the new identity of the subject bearing the desire is confronted with the Law and the problems of the transgression of the boundaries it prescribes. In the second part of the narrative, the violence expands into the fantasy world and returns to the reality of the original identity. At the same time, the realization is reinforced that the destruction of the object of desire or death produces a new beginning and, thus, a new desire and a new urge to transgression.
