But did you know that it was Mel Brooks who gave him his first big break? That the idea for Blue Velvet grew out of a fantasy Lynch had about sneaking into a private room and learning the secret to a murder mystery? That Twin Peaks came about because co-creator Mark Frost was obsessed with Marilyn Monroe? In Lynch on Lynch, a 250-page interview book, editor Chris Rodley does a superb job of getting Lynch to talk at length about the high and low points of his life and career. Their conversation covers his early work as a painter through the making of his major films of the 1980s, the fiasco of Dune ("It is what it is."), and the recent and very obscure Lost Highway ("I just *loved* this title."). Lynch is particularly interesting when he talks about the creative process: "I don't want to give the impression that I sit around thinking up horrible things. I get all kinds of different ideas and feelings. If I'm lucky, they start organizing themselves into a story--then maybe some ideas come along that are too eerie, too violent, or too funny, and they don't fit that story. So you write them down and save them for two or three projects down the road. There's nowhere you can't go in a film--if you think of it, you can go there." Lynch on Lynch is a treat for Lynch fans of all shapes, sizes, and fetishes. 3800929 1997 Lynch on Lynch: Revised Edition total:296|5:117|4:133|3:43|2:3|1:0| 296 1252 446 32 4 0 false false Tue Sep 22 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Mon Sep 21 15:41:48 -0700 2009 Tue Sep 22 20:21:11 -0700 2009 more...]]> 5 0 false false Fri Jan 01 00:00:00 -0800 1999 Fri Oct 30 23:08:00 -0700 2009 Sat Oct 31 13:55:33 -0700 2009 more...]]> 5 0 false false Fri Oct 26 13:25:55 -0700 2007 Sun Feb 03 01:17:18 -0800 2008 more...]]> 4 0 false false Mon Jan 01 00:00:00 -0800 2007 Fri Jan 16 00:54:22 -0800 2009 Fri Jan 16 00:57:15 -0800 2009 more...]]> 4 0 false false Mon Mar 09 19:59:58 -0700 2009 Mon Mar 09 20:06:35 -0700 2009 his creative process, at the very least). ]]> 4 0 false false Tue Jan 01 00:00:00 -0800 2002 Thu Sep 13 12:28:27 -0700 2007 Thu Sep 13 12:33:29 -0700 2007 more...]]> 5 0 false false Wed Feb 04 12:57:57 -0800 2009 Wed Feb 04 12:58:37 -0800 2009 5 0 false false Sat Aug 02 09:35:40 -0700 2008 Sat Aug 02 09:44:46 -0700 2008
