Nicolas Cage was great in his pre-action-hero movies. Nicolas Cage is in his prime here and the role is, somewhat, reminiscent of the 'repeat offender' he played in Raising Arizona. Arguably the best thing about Wild at Heart is its great cast. The two lovebirds head to California and encounter all sorts of crazy situations along the way. However, her mother's desperation leads her to contact a hit-man she is in knows and the young couple is forced to run away.

Being young and in love, the girl rebels. Lula is more than willing to pick up the relationship, but if her mother has anything to do with it, she won't have a chance. When he gets out, he is desperate to get Lula (Laura Dern), the girl he loves, back again. A young couple is separated when the guy, an Elvis fanatic named Sailor (Nicolas Cage), goes to prison for manslaughter after defending himself against a man who threatened him. Fast paced, mostly ridiculous, and pretty unrealistic, Wild at Heart is far from perfect, but a very fun film to watch. Wild at Heart revolved around a young couple, played to perfection by Nicolas Cage and Laura Dern. That being said, it still remains very far from mainstream. Wild at Heart is probably the most conventional David Lynch film I've seen.
