    Well shit, NOW whose films am I going to confidently proclaim to understand while secretly googling for an explanation on my phone…

    Loved most of his stuff even if I can’t claim to understand all of it. Even his “Dune”. I was one of the people who actually liked his version.

    I loved how “out there” he was, but I gotta say, I never liked any of his stuff. I tried. But it was all just disorganized and chaotic. Too weird for me to be entertained.

    Hope all you Lynch fans are doing well. It’s so hard to see when a visionary goes but David seemed content and I’m happy to have the memories.

      Thanks for this comment. It perfectly conveys empathy for the fans and respect for the artist. I needed that little dopamine hit.

    His movies were great but his getting who killed Laura Palmer to be something mainstream was magic. At least S 1.
