In Reply to: Lynch is directing Trout Fishing in America? posted by bubbahotep on August 22, 2002 at 23:55:47:
My interest in Lynch has waxed and waned over the course of his career, but that book is a personal favorite of mine and you've really gotta wonder what Lynch would do with it. Interesting bit of news...

I wish it were news but it'll never happen in our lifetime. Guess I should have used an emoticon. Hope I didn't mislead you. Still.. it is fun to think about. TFIA is also one of my all-time faves but I think he'd do better with Willard and His Bowling Trophies. Maybe starring Martin Sheen?
Yes, that is fun to think about. It's a bit odd that I didn't question the idea. Considering the utter surreality of the opening credits for 'The Straight Story' which announced "Walt Disney Presents....a David Lynch film", I suppose it didn't seem that far a leap over to Brautigan. It's equally odd to consider that the director originally slotted for Dune a few years before Lynch directed his version was none other than Alejandro Jodorowsky (of El Topo fame), with Salvador Dali starring as the Emperor. That is not a joke!Come to think of it, I think Lynch would do a fine job at Trout Fishing...let's petition the studios!
