Celebrating David Lynch

Celebrating David Lynch

2 Seasons

A director of such distinctive, overpowering vision that he inspired his own adjective, David Lynch made films that seemed telegraphed straight from his unconscious to the screen. From the unsettling surrealist imagery of his midnight-movie classic ERASERHEAD to the harrowing suburban nightmare TWIN PEAKS: FIRE WALK WITH ME and the uncanny majesty of his Hollywood-set masterpieces MULHOLLAND DR. AND INLAND EMPIRE, Lynch’s labyrinthine puzzle boxes turn the American psyche inside out to reveal its deepest, darkest dimensions.
