    ARE THE EDITORS SMART ENOUGH TO PICK UP THIS INFORMATION AND MAKE THE CORRECTIONS. Please let me know. David Lynch's Hotel Room does not have the full cast listed, they go to great length to add producers, a lot of crew members but not the significant actors, such as Glenn Headly, and Harry Dean Stanton. Go to these actors IMDb pages and verify, go to Leonard Maltins comments for Headly and verify as well. Can the editors go the extra mile for good customer service, and check with other sources and get the correct information, let us hope so!!! This is a popular DVD because Lynch is such a great director and hard to find at video stores. I'm sure IMDb has other sources to check. You have a great web site but often info is sketchy and you rely on us fans to set the record straight... THANK YOU

    ::Possible Spoilers ????:: About the first part of "Hotel Room": I thought it was the best, with some really good acting, especially by Harry Dean Stanton. I'm not sure about this, but I think that the other guy (Louis) was supposed to be Moe's conscience, and he wasn't real. David Lynch never really says what the whole idea behind the story was, but that's what I think (that might have been a spoiler of some sort). Either way, this episode was really good.The second part was terribly terrible. It may not have been so bad, but squeezed between two slices of Lynch-bread, it tasted like a piece of rotten turkey.The third one was also good. There were only two characters in this one (Crispin Glover and Alicia Witt), and they both gave great performances. Both this and the first episode had David Lynch's trademark of unusual dialogue that is never really explained enough for the viewer to understand exactly what is going on.

    A very good trilogy of short stories that take place in a hotel room, during 40's and 90's. The second story is not directed by D.Lynch and you as a lynch fan will notice it right away. The first one is very good but the last story takes the price. Very classic Lynch directing. We see the characters many times from a mirror reflection, gives us the "watching" mood as in Blue Velvet and Twin Peaks. The story is dark and very moody. Angelo Badalamentis work haunts in the background. Just beautiful. Recommended. 9 out of 10!!

    The first episode of the trilogy is classic David Lynch fare with a stand-out Harry Dean Stanton performance, the second is a god-awful mess of a piece directed by the acclaimed director of the Elvira movie. Fast-forward this mistake (commissioned by HBO so that they would have a "feature-length anthology") The final part is one of the finest pieces of acting and directing that I've ever seen. I'm a Lynch fan, but nothing could prepare me for a story where Crispin Glover is the sane, voice of reason. Alicia Witt is a marvelous actress who shines in this terrifying role. Kudos to Crispin's restraint. A great hour
