luna Posted October 8, 2013 Share Posted October 8, 2013 just because i thought on of his movies is shit doesn't mean i don't think he's great...the top two are absolute masterpieces and the third is close enough. i'm sure he's got other great movies i haven't seen yet. i might grab mulholland drive next.

Jake Gittes Posted October 8, 2013 Share Posted October 8, 2013 Lynch has to be my biggest blind spot in modern cinema. Over the years I've learned enough information about the man, his style and his work that I sometimes feel like I'm actually familiar with it, except that, in reality, I've only seen The Elephant Man (and that was over a decade ago) and Lost Highway. What's funny is that there's no problem of him not appealing to me - I dug the hell out of Lost Highway, and from all I've read and heard, I'm actually pretty sure he's right up my alley. Yet somehow I can never just sit down with a movie of his. (Well, there are reasons: over the past few years I've become used to catching modern filmmakers' films in weeks before the theatrical release of their new films, and since Lynch hasn't released a film since Inland Empire, I've always been preoccupied with other notable directors. Meanwhile, I'm also catching some classics, both old and modern, on whatever DVDs I can get in this country, and I actually own a 4-disc Lynch box set that includes The Elephant Man, The Straight Story, Mulholland Dr. and Inland Empire; only problem is, I also own a couple dozen films from 1960's and 1970's that I haven't seen yet, and I'd like to deal with them chronologically. I know it's largely a "problem" I created for myself, by myself, but still, those 1960's movies are pretty fascinating too. And in addition to all of this I have a life going on, too. I dunno, maybe I should just drop whatever the hell I'm doing right now and watch something of his just like that, right now. Anyway. I sure can't wait.

A Marvel Fanboy Posted October 9, 2013 Author Share Posted October 9, 2013 He must be the director with the highest IQ in the world. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IndustriousAngel Posted October 9, 2013 Share Posted October 9, 2013 (edited) There's something to like in every one of his films, even "Dune", but my favourite of his is: The Straight Story it's among my very few 10/10 films. It's his simplest and most touching film. Edited October 9, 2013 by IndustriousAngel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

solaris Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 Mulholland Drive is perfection. The man could have directed that and nothing else and would still be a genius. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
