See this film: Blue Velvet at the Brattle

Is the prevalence of Pabst Blue Ribbon beer in the recently released Indie film Hesher a reference to David Lynch's Blue Velvet (1986)? Dennis Hopper's endorsement of that product, not to mention his use of a gas mask, are only a couple of reasons to see one of the greatest surrealist movies since Un chien Andalou It all starts with an ear that Kyle MacLachlan's callow hero finds in a field, and ends with the blue bird of happiness, with Laura Dern and Isabella Rossellini making erotically confusing appearances along the way.
