Alvinin hellyyttävä kaveriporukka, kohtaus John Deere -kaupassa tai kotoaan karanneen tytön kanssa nuotiolla... Jotenkaan en olisi uskonut, että usko ihmisiin ja elämään voisi palautua juuri Lynchin leffaa katsomalla. Straight Story on kunnianosoitus elämälle, joka nousee korkealle omalla, parhaiden leffojen listallani 3/3.

The big re-watch continues. Once you've seen #TwinPeaks season 3, conventional #TV seems so insubstantial.
How many other productions masterfully cover so many genres? Police drama, satire, horror, comedy, surrealism, sci-fi, thriller/noir, music TV, soap, fantasy, avant-garde, teen drama, US gothic, romance, murder mystery...
Without question (or exaggeration), some of the finest television ever broadcast.

3 things about David Lynch’s INLAND EMPIRE [2006]

Canned laughter.
3. "There is no paper. For the toilet."

The original television series, TWIN PEAKS (1990-1991), aired when I was the night manager at a campus video store (6 nights a week, 6pm-midnight). After each episode aired patrons would come in and rave about it. But I missed the whole thing. And, perhaps for Freudian or Lynchian reasons, I've never seen it, even after it came out on DVD, etc. Consequently, I also haven't see any other Twin Peaks related shows/movies. I feel the strong need to fix that situation.

Along with my #Oppenheimer #CriterionCollection special edition request, I now want a #DavidLynch #BoxSet with #TheWizardOfOz, #LynchOz, and his complete #film and #tv catalogue.

This would obviously be very expensive, and worth it, imo, even if he does end up releasing more such work.

I've enjoyed part of #DavidLynch's, work, some being among my favorites (#BlueVelvet), but not being able to understand so much of his #art has made it difficult for me to fully appreciate him.

#Lynch / #Oz, now on #TheCriterionChannel, has given me a new perspective that I'll use to rewatch (and watch) his work (not #WildAtHeart, 'cuz fuck all things #Elvis).

A recent rewatch of #MulhollandDrive helped, and I still missed this connection.

DAVID LYNCH: THE ART LIFE (2016)

This is a documentary film that explores the art of David Lynch, primarily his painting, but also his life growing up and discovering art, dealing with disapproval from his family, and trying to find his way in the world. It also, wonderfully, shows the background and path he took to making his first feature, ERASERHEAD (1977), a modern masterpiece of art-house cinema.

#TheCriterionChannel has a collection of #DavidLynch's short films. I just watched his first two, SIX MEN GETTING SICK (1967, length 4:20) and THE ALPHABET (1968, length 4:02).

Fascinating. These were done when he was an art student. He was studying #painting but was driven to find ways to make the paintings move. Thus began his life with #film.

My only gripe about this amazingly thorough edition of the BLUE VELVET soundtrack is it used Italy's non sequitur of a poster.

#DavidLynch #books #livres #photography #film

Me in our bookshop, holding up a large, coffee table book on David Lynch. The cover is a life-size photo of his face, so I held it directly in front of my own face!

RIP #PiperLaurie

In the second season of #TwinPeaks, she appeared in disguise as a Japanese business man named Mr. Tojamura - a secret so well hidden, not even the other actors knew about it. For months she and #DavidLynch fooled everyone into thinking the character is played by a famous Japanese actor called Fumio Yamaguchi, who worked with #AkiraKurosawa.

The only reason she didn't return for Season 3 was that they couldn't give her a good story. She'd have loved to return.

Piper Laurie as Fumio Yamaguchi aka Mr. Tojamura.

More eloquently put, #AngelsEgg is just the most stunningly gorgeous #anime I've seen.

The first few seconds of the film immediately remind me of Rabbit Moon by #KennethAnger

The circular storytelling is so #DavidLynch. Mamoru Oshii was more familiar with European film, but I bet he and #Amano were influenced by these two American filmmakers.

Oh and speaking of, the neo-gothic art of #Amano is so faithfully animated. It's literally a miracle.

Can't believe critics slept on this when it came out. It's a masterpiece.

I'm listening to my kids watch anime. I'm realizing that David Lynch's Dune was ahead of its time as the first attempt at a live action anime. You can tell because he makes you listen to everyone's inner monologue describing their plans and reactions to other people.

James Hurley spent like the entire original run of Twin Peaks being the most desirable Moody Himbo for every girl in town, and as such I'm convinced there are mystical powers in that forehead. When is Mark Frost gonna write a book delving into that? #twinpeaks #davidlynch #markfrost

I'm a DUNE fanatic. I've read the novel several times. I celebrate Denis Villeneuve's DUNE (2021) as a monumental cinematic achievement and a brilliant lesson in how to adapt an unadaptable, but beloved book. That all said, DUNE (1984) -- directed by David Lynch, whose birthday is today -- is awesome despite its myriad flaws, and I shake my head pityingly at those who wasted years of their lives trying to convince themselves otherwise.

- Eerie and disturbing oil painting illustrations by #AleksanderRostov

- An wonderful soundtrack that was alternately mournful and hardcore by #SeaPower

Kurvitz has said that Dashiell Hammett, China Miéville, and the Strugatsky brothers were influences, but there were also several call-outs to #DavidLynch...
