David Lynchs 1990 Wild at Heart is an utterly random & ugly experience with pockets of startling imagery & inspired set pieces. Based on a Barry Gifford novel, the film stars Nicolas Cage & Laura Dern as lovers on the lam whose relationship is tested & who meet some truly dangerous wackos . Lynchs thoughts seem to be everywhere, & he expects the audience to keep up with a story that seems more a collection of avant-garde whims than a coherent vision with the intuitive brilliance of his Blue Velvet. Cage gives one of his more chaotic performances, but then he was just reading Lynchs signposts.

Nicolas Cage is an American actor. He was born Nicholas Kim Coppola in Long Beach, California, the son of August & Joy Coppola. In 1976, Cages parents divorced & he moved to Beverly Hills with his father. He is the nephew of both Francis Ford Coppola & Talia Shire. Cage changed his name early in order to try to make his own way in acting without benefiting from his uncles reputation. He chose the name Cage after the Marvel comic book hero Luke Cage, Power Man. He had a small role in Fast Times at Ridgemont High, most of which ended on the cutting room floor. His next notable roles were in the 1983 movies Rumble Fish & Valley Girl, which was his breakout role. He won an Academy Award for Best Actor for his role in Leaving Las Vegas. He has developed a reputation for alternating roles in action movies with more serious character-driven dramas & an occasional black comedy. He has a son, Weston Coppola Cage, with model Kristina Fulton. On April 8, 1995, he married actress Patricia Arquette. They divorced in 2001. Posters Of Nicolas Cage
