David Lynch


Perhaps surprise is not on the menu of today's moviegoers.

They want reassurance, domestic fairy tales come true, not the astonishment that Jean Cocteau demanded of art.

So all hail the American fringies, those filmmakers who make something different out of next to nothing.

i love different and fully agree that today people want to feel happy all of the time or sime kind of reassurance..

not to feel dared, puzzled, intrigued and even scared..

bored society full of calm people..

I'm a massive fan of David Lynch.

It's always a thrill to watch one

of his films for the umpteenth time,

they always shock and surprise.

I wish he would make another film - on film,

not digital video.

I also love Angelo Badalamenti's soundtracks.

Have a wonderful weekend!

Cheers

Mark

David Lynch es un director que me gusta. Quizá porque su cine es complejo. A veces, también da la sensación de reírse del expectador. Pero, ya sólo la genialidad de algunas escenas, merece la pena todo lo demás.
Un abrazo
