RIP David Lynch. Great obituary from Variety and RogerEbert.com (via Gruber). I love his work in Twin Peaks (both as director and Gordon Cole, “Coop!”). I first saw his unsettling films Eraserhead and Blue Velvet years ago, but I still need to see Elephant Man and Mulholland Drive.

From Kyle MacLachlan (on Instagram):

Forty-two years ago, for reasons beyond my comprehension, David Lynch plucked me out of obscurity to star in his first and last big budget movie. He clearly saw something in me that even I didn’t recognize. I owe my entire career, and life really, to his vision.

What an artist.
