On the up side, it's very disturbing.

Lynch is so unusual. I really can't form my own opinion on his stuff. I have to listen to people (e.g., YouTube) give their input and then I think, Ok, that maybe makes sense.

Lost Highway is my favorite.

Interesting how Dennis Hopper looks like Kirk Douglas.

Eraserhead isnt meant to be taken literally, like any other Lynch movie. He cant get the baby to eat, it cries without end, it gets sick and he cant improve the situation. Its all about fear. Just very abstract.

In heaven, everything is fine. Brilliant movie. One of my favorites.

I've heard the name before, but that's about it. I just read the plot synopsis on wikipedia. Holy carp, WTF?!?

I may have to try to watch this, although it's doubtful if I'll make it through based on the description.

David Lynch is an American director. The first thing I want to say about David Lynch is that if anyone says they understand the meaning behind his films, they’re lying.
