I love how David Lynch refuses to say that his films have one concrete meaning, I think it makes it much more interesting to watch because you really have to absorb everything you see and come to your own conclusions.

I realized that the best stories need to have 3 interpretations. One you/the writer gives it, one that your fans get from face value, and then one you just randomly hide for shits and giggles.

You know what I really like about Lynch's dreamy movies... first you watch it, and you end up with a mixed feeling. You like the art and the mystery of it, but you feel frustrated because you can't put everything together. Then you can't stop thinking about it. You watch it again... and then explore the internet for other people's interpretations. You finally start to put the pieces together and at this point the film instantly grows on you. What looked like something without meaning instantly glues as you get the click of what it is about. And even if you got the main idea... like when you discover what the puzzle is about... there is still a lot of symbolic stuff in the periphery for you to grasp. And this periphery is part of an endless discussion, because it is Lynch's very personal ideas and influences showing up, although the core is probably available to everyone, since it's about life. I really like this man's art. Thank you, David.

While listening to just the audio of this interview, I could easily imagine Lynch as Heath Ledger's Joker; "Such a beautiful thing to get an idea. Because you see it, you hear it, you feel it, and *THERE IT IS.* " Gotta love Lynch, he just _does_ things. A cinematic agent of chaos.

Definitely some overlap between the way Lynch attempts to illuminate the vast possibilities of his films through non-answer and the way a Zen Koan sparks insight through absurdity.

It looks sorta like Ben Horne is interviewing him to me. xD

David Lynch is the jazz musician of film makers...improv cinema & storytelling...his ideation-to-cinema explanation made me think of cooking --- like when you have an idea for what to make for dinner, say roast chicken, and then smth else comes up like, a side of sauteed mushrooms and...then the salad...dessert and so on...

But the owls are not what they seem.

To understand Lynch you need to watch his early films, and by those I mean works like the Grandmother. Any explanation of work after that is redundant. He's a visual artist and painter who brings it to life like a multi disciplinary Francis Bacon.

There are very few men in the world with hair that is comparable to David's. After I learned he never shampoos it, I dropped the habit myself, for the most part, unless it gets super-greasy.

David Lynch is a genius, he does an amazing job of taking the piss out of Hollywood and its nonsensical formulaic storytelling. Hollywood is too pretentious to realise he has been trolling them for 40 years.

It's just tremendously egotistic to assume you'll be the one journalist amongst thousands to make Lynch give you a textbook answer. Every time you ask Lynch to explain his work you are ignoring the multiple times he's told you his art is a personal experience not a plot driven narrative with literal statements. You only have an hour with a genius and you still waste time with dead questions. Disrespectful asf.

I agree, and more or less, he expressed my sentiment, that they only want him to give answers because he is still alive. My whole freshmen year of college was explicating the works of dead authors. Nobody had the same conclusions.

Lynch is just telling it how it is. I wish the audience would quite their laughter.

The '50s was shiny and chrome.

anyone speak lynch hands? Need subs

I like how the interviewer keeps trying to pin down the meaning on these movies and Lynch is so comfortable rejecting the notion entirely. Although it got a bit annoying toward the end like, don't you get it dude?

David Lynch's approach to meaning in film, is the same as Derrida's in writing and philosophy. There is no meaning inherent in anything, besides its innumerable interpretations. An artist who accepts this, is able to express themselves through a wider emotional spectrum than language or images alone might allow, and it cannot be reduced back to those mediums.

Love Lynch! INLAND EMPIRE, Mulholland Drive, Lost Highway and Eraserhead are my fav's. I never like Elephant Man at all.

Terrible questions and interview

Dear Mister Lynch: Rock and Roll had existed since the 1920s and was not embraced by the culture at large until the 50s. Because a person is unaware of something does not mean that it doesn't exist. I was there for most of the 50s and the first r'n'r I heard was a downbeat-heavy blues number called Heartbreak Hotel. Fats Domino was recording r'n'r in the late 40s and Blueberry Hill came to L.A. radio the same year that Elvis came to my attention. Elvis was making fine recordings at Sun Records since 1953 and those records were not played on L.A. radio. You are a smart guy, David, please do your homework and proper research before making sweeping statements not based in "real history". In otherwords African-American rock and rollers were not known to the culture until Elvis opened the door. That's how it worked then and now there are computers granting access to excellence should a person seek excellence. One can find traditional Japanese music, for instance, with KZread and even didgeridoo jams are available to anyone with laptop and internet (make it free, please). I do a wicked good interpretation of a Lynch/Badalamenti song called "Rockin' Back into My Heart" and I changed a few words so that I can sing it honestly. When I sing I am incapable of lying and that is not a disease. I'm in Hollywood if you want to hear it. I would film it on my computer if my retarded neighbors would allow it and they are on six sides of my room. Perhaps I'll find a way to make a vid of your song - is there a copyright ban on wicked good interpretations? Please let me know and keep on rocking.

I know loads of people with just as much imagination as David Lynch who could do far better than him. He's ok, but he's not brilliant is he?
