An 'indie' director who also works for Hollywood & for TV. It stupefies the imagination—of 'some', I guess. But if he's an auteur then what's the vision,, say, that would bind his work into what a film critic might venture to term an oeuvre? These essays give different, indeed 'divergent', re adings of Lynch's work through the 1980s & 90s, demonstrating the difficulty of finding"stable interpretative positions"(direct quote) for his work—but demonstrating also the pleasure of finding news ways of thinking about it. Discussion treats, among others, Eraserhead, Elephant Man, Blue Velvet, Twin Peaks, Wild At Heart, The Straight Story and Mulholand Drive |
