Thanks for this obituary Kevin. It's clear that the NYT writer just didn't get who David Lynch was and what he was about: "performative normality" & "Mr. Lynch’s interviews, at once laconic and gee-whiz, were blandly withholding." As for their descriptions of "Mulholland Drive" (erotic thriller) and "Inland Empire" (A blandly inscrutable movie) ... The latter is perhaps my favourite film of all time.
He will be greatly missed. I consider myself incredibly fortunate to have a copy of the self-portrait he did for the crowd funder for "The Art Life".
One of my closest friends was a professional film critic for 20 years, and I’m pretty sure that his favourite director was David Lynch. But no matter what evidence I cited, that friend would never entertain the idea that 9/11 was an inside job. Oh the sad irony.
From my experience people (especially AmeriCONs) just don’t want to know the truth. It’s too difficult to realize you thought you lived in the “good guys” country when in fact it’s the heart of evil.
You know...its funny...I guess its just the way (what's left of) my mind works; but I was reminded somehow of this crazy song by Tom Waits, the meaning of which he expounds upon in this interview clip:
El Profesor Lynch was a great storyteller. His most straight ahead movie, The Straight Story let's the story speak for itself. No head turning stuff, just the surreal of " ordinary" life. He had a singular vision. It took him five years to make Eraserhead a movie he never expected to get beyond the film art crowd. The hope there is to hold on to your vision. It might just take you where you are hoping to go.
It's a sad commentary on human beings that you all still fall for that 9/11 Truth shinola. There was no inside job. There were no missiles. No demolition explosions. The planes were hijacked. They ran into buildings. No joo plot. Building exteriors can collapse at and even above g thanks to leveraging. I think David Lynch was a great director. It's a stain on his legacy that he fell for that crap too.

Yes, he was real, which is why the lie factories (Hollywood and MSM) didn't quite know what to make of him.

UNDERGROUND
[Verse 1]
Rattle big black bones in the danger zone
There's a rumblin' groan down below
There's a big dark town, it's a place I've found
There's a world going on underground
[Verse 2]
They're alive, they're awake
While the rest of the world is asleep
Below the mineshaft roads, it will all unfold
There's a world going on underground
[Verse 3]
All the roots hang down, swing from town to town
They are marching around down under your boots
All the trucks unload beyond the gopher holes
There's a world going on underground
Thanks for this Kevin.
Thanks Kevin. I knew he was big in the TM scene but I didn't know he was a truther. Thanks so much.

You’re funny, and your satire is succinct. Well done, sleep well and God bless
lynch: intuition = emotion + intellect
a flowing of knowingness
Most excellent eulogy, good sir. David Lynch a genius of the ongoing apocalypse (= unveiling, not the dime store bizarro Jesu version) .
