Summary:

Trained as a painter, David Lynch applies his artistic talents to filmmaking. Disturbing and mysterious, his films such as "Blue Velvet", "Wild at Heart", and the TV series "Twin Peaks" keep surrealism and hallucination in perfect balance. Renowned for his reticence about speaking about his work, Lynch now talks openly, not only about his movies but about the full range of his many activities. 40 photos.
