Been on a bit of a DL kick lately. Over the past 2 weeks, I've watched Mulholland Drive, Twin Peaks (the TV series and the FWWM movie) Lost Highway and yet another viewing of Blue Velvet. Read a bunch of articles/text on Lynch (and these specific films too) which gave me a much better appreciation of these works. Kinda neat to watch a bunch of films by the same director within a short period of time - gave me a good appreciation of his style/tone/themes etc....I think my fav out of the above films is Mulholland Drive. There are so many levels to this one....its really great. I'm still surprised that Lynch originally created this for TV (for ABC?) I'm sure the version that he submitted to the network was somewhat toned down, but DL really thought they would air something like this on network television?
