Few directors in the past three decades have produced movies more
compelling, controversial, or confounding than David Lynch (b.
1946). And fewer still have been so reluctant to talk about what
they do. In this collection, editor Richard A. Barney has chosen
the rare interviews in which Lynch opens up to questions rather
than deflecting them. Whether Lynch is talking about his earliest
film shorts such as "The Grandmother" or the break-out surrealist
feature "Eraserhead," the hit TV series "Twin Peaks" or his
Oscar-nominated "The Elephant Man" or "Blue Velvet" or his most
recent experimental tours de force, "Mulholland Drive" and "Inland
Empire," he stresses the power of image and sound to communicate
his vision.
"David Lynch: Interviews" is the first survey of conversations
with the director covering the broad spectrum of his artistic
activities throughout his career, including filmmaking, painting,
music production, and furniture design. It documents the evolution
of Lynch's role in discussing his movies, from his self-described
"pre-verbal stage" in the early years to his increasingly
elaborate, though persistently elusive, articulations. It also
registers the intense international interest in Lynch's work, with
interviews from French and Spanish sources translated here for the
first time.
