Rest in Dreams, David Lynch
The virtuoso creator of all my favorite films, such as Mulholland Drive, Blue Velvet, Lost Highway, is gone. I am sad and feel a little less.
Being in darkness and confusion is interesting to me. But behind it you can rise out of that and see things the way they really are. That there is some sort of truth to the whole thing, if you could just get to that point where you could see it, and live it, and feel it … I think it is a long, long, way off. In the meantime there’s suffering and darkness and confusion and absurdities, and it’s people kind of going in circles. It’s fantastic. It’s like a strange carnival: it’s a lot of fun, but it’s a lot of pain.
- David Lynch
I shall miss you, David. There never will be another filmmaker like you.
