just a boy, standing in front of a movie, asking it to entertain him

1955
I didn't know David Lynch directed one of the original Twilight Zone entries!
I love little curio objects like this, thanks Tubi! A feminist noir expressionist freakout with an omnipresent avant garde jazz score featuring Marni Nixon wailing like a theremin. Short and slight and lousy with 50s pop psychology. A literal nightmare on celluloid.
