Okay, yesterday there was special day:
I saw my first David Lynch-film (note that I'm 14).
It was "Lost Highway".
After I watched it I sat at my bed and just looked in the air, my mouth open. I couldn't order this experience in a special case.
What was this?
I real liked it, it was very impressive, but I didn't understand.
It was just beautiful!
I will buy more Lynch-films on DVD in future. That was great!
I Watched my first Lynch Film at 15. God I Remember My reaction it was Lost Highway Also. wait a little bit before you watch Blue Velvet You might a little to young to understand same for Mulholland Drive!
Just keep thinking about it, or rewatch it. It eventually makes sense
This David Lynch seems to be a true genius.
He's so mysterious, I can't believe it!
Ah, to be young and discover Lynch. Definitely a wonderful and strange experience.
I stumbled upon Lynch-land at the young age of 10. Twin Peaks hit television and got hooked b/c my mom got me to watch the pilot w/ her. I became instantly obsessed. The real trouble started when I noticed that every ad or interview was prefaced with "From the director of Blue Velvet." I asked my dad if I could see it, and he said I was too young, which of course made me want to see it more. I went to the video store and tried to rent it, but it was placed in the 'light adult' section. Alas, I ended up getting it from the library of all places! To top it off, I watched it with my 8 year old sister. We both became full-fledged Lynch-fanatics and have been since.
The results: I'm a fledging filmmaker/writer w/ a twisted mind, and my sister is a mall girl who obsessed w/ crime scenes and criminology.
P.S. BOB gave her nightmares for years.
Spike, what are you thinking about trying next?
Twin peaks is most excellent, I try and make all my friends watch it.
But don’t watch Fire Walk With Me until you have seen everything else in the series.
The Pilot and the first 7 Episodes are essential viewing for any lynch fan, just make sure that the Pilot is US version and not the Euro one. As it spoils things a little.
Peace
Spike, go deeper. Watch "Eraserhead" next.

You are only 14 and liked Lost Highway as your first Lynch film? Now that is just too cool. I am 40 yo and a big Lynch fanatic.

Blue Velvet - another fav as well
Eraserhead - you need to be prepared for this :crazyeyes:
Mulholland Drive
