OT: David Lynch

If (like me) you're going to dive back into some Lynch this year, here's one of my favorite essays on Mulholland Drive from back in the day.

Also, I think I might rewatch the original Twin Peaks and follow it up with the newer season that Lynch did for Showtime. Anybody see that one?

Mulholland Drive I had never seen until you posted this.

I watched it three times this past weekend and then Blue Velvet.

I cannot believe I had never seen MD. Loved it.

So many questions...

Watched it tonight with my youngest(12 about to be 13). I hadn't seen it in forever, but what a movie. So good.

Loved the first season, second season was very disappointing

Especially when they told who did it early on

The basic idea of a whodunit is to save the revelation of "whodunit" for last.

I saw the Showtime series

I thought it mostly sucked.

Lynch, as we know, told decidedly non-linear stories but it just felt too hodgepodge for me.

Blue Velvet

Haven't seen it in years but will always remember this scene:

You wanna beer?

Sure, I'll have a Heineken.

Fuck Heineken. Pabst Blue Ribbon.

My college buddies quote that all the time

Watched that movie so much we broke the tape.
