Disney CEO Bob Iger, who greenlighted Twin Peaks as ABC Entertainment President from 1989–1992, pays tribute to series co-creator David Lynch who died.
David Lynch was a groundbreaking filmmaker whose imagination ran wild with proposed movies like 'Ronnie Rocket' and 'One Saliva Bubble.'
“Twin Peaks” was his ultimate portrait of a land of terror and beauty.
David Lynch is dead and we are looking back at his considerable career, from films to TV and everything in between.
What we’re dealing with here is a work like no other, unveiled in a manner no one has ever experienced before.
Lynch, who was born in Montana in 1946, was a writer, director and painter who studied at the American Film Institute. He first broke into the movie scene in 1977 when he turned his thesis project into his first feature film "Eraserhead," a black-and-white surrealist indie film that quickly gained notoriety as a midnight movie.
Lynch has directed 10 feature-length films with prolific actors like Anthony Hopkins, Laura Dern, Nicholas Cage, and Kyle MacLachlan, as well as the beloved television show he co-created with Mark Frost, 'Twin Peaks.' Lynch's first full-length film is available to stream on Max and to purchase or rent on Prime Video and YouTube.
David Lynch, who co-created “Twin Peaks” and directed films like ‘Blue Velvet’ and “Mulholland Drive,” has died. He was 78. Lynch’s family confirmed his passing on social media on Thursday.
In the decades since they were first screened, fans have continued to hunt for meaning and answers in Lynch’s filmography, which eludes interpretation with every watch. They would often hound Lynch in life for a definitive take on his movies, something that would always elicit an amusing and matter-of-act retort: “It’s all there on the screen!”
North Bend reflects on David Lynch's impact and plans a range of activities, including a pub crawl for charity and civic meetings.
The event will take place on Monday, which would have been his 79th birthday, to celebrate his life and legacy.
