Lynch on Lynch, Revised Edition
Lynch on Lynch, Revised Edition | David Lynch, Chris Rodley
5 posts | 4 read | 2 to read
Now fully updated, Lynch on Lynch describes the career of a cinematic genius who has continued to astonish filmgoers with the lovely and life-affirming The Straight Story and the luxurious dread of the Academy Award-nominated Mulholland Drive. David Lynch erupted onto the cinema landscape with Eraserhead, establishing himself as one of the most original, imaginative, and truly personal directors at work in contemporary film. He is a surrealist, in the tradition of the great Spanish director Luis Bunuel. Over the course of a career that includes such films as The Elephant Man, Blue Velvet, Wild at Heart, Lost Highway, and the seminal TV series Twin Peaks, Lynch has remained true to an artistic vision of innocence lost or adrift in the direst states of darkness and confusion. Nobody else sees the world quite as David Lynch does. Once seen, his films are never forgotten, nor does the world about us seem quite as it did before. In this definitive career-length interview book, Lynch speaks openly about the full breadth of his creative work, which encompasses not only movies but also a lifelong commitment to painting, a continuing exploration of photography, extensive work in television, and musical collaborations with composer Angelo Badalamenti and singer Julee Cruise.

David Lynch has passed away at the age of 78. I know his movies weren't to everyone's taste, but I loved Blue Velvet, Mulholland Drive and even his version of Dune. I remember being totally obsessed with Twin Peaks, until it all fell apart.

RowReads1 RIP! Twin Peaks rules! 1mo

‘Eagle Scout, Missoula, Montana‘

David Lynch has been one of my all time favorite film directors for years, so I was ecstatic to finally grab a copy of this book. This collection of interviews covers his life and creative interests from childhood on, and discusses his film projects up to Mulholland Drive.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

A suitably strange, deep, fascinating & mysterious insight into a singular artist who is all of those things and more (yet chooses to describe himself with this four word biography: Eagle Scout, Missoula, Montana)

I especially loved every time Rodley would try asking point blank what certain things are supposed to mean, and how Lynch would always manage to answer without ever making anything clear.

Nothing was elucidated, but much was gained.

1. David Lynch or Sasha Roiz. My fictional crush is Severus Snape, so I guess I have a thing for the morose, broody type....
2. All the rich jewel tones...
3. Probably Strange Weather by Joe Hill
4. Yeow! Hard choice - Will Hunting, Brienne of Tarth, Allan Quatermain, and (because 1.) Professor Snape 😁
5. I'll try!

TheWordJar 🤦‍♀️ I forgot about Brienne! I‘d totally want her along! 7y
MissAimz_55 Yes to jeweled tones 7y
