Pinterest Mom posted:it's okay to skip inland empire I really don't like Inland Empire although that one scene with Laura Dern's stretched out face is scary. But it's clearly the product of Lynch just doing a bunch of experiments with video cameras since he was excited by the tech and loving around, then loosely connecting it with a frame story. He even admits as much interviews about it Lynch hasnt actually made a project that was fully initially envisaged and completed as a feature film since the 90s, given Mulholland Drive started as a tv polot

The Vast of Night feels Lynch-inspired, in the same way that Brian de Palma can be said to feel Hitchcock-inspired. regulargonzalez fucked around with this message at 08:11 on Nov 3, 2023 |

I watched Jennifer Lynch’s “Chained” recently and it is very good once you adjust to the weird tone it’s going for. Definitely and literally Lynchian.

Blue Velvet and Mulholland Drive were my two favourite Lynch films, but yeah all the ones I saw were worth a watch. Although Dune mainly because of some bafflingly strange adaptation decisions tbh

Inland Empire is the most accurate depiction of a nightmare I've seen in film, I can't say I enjoyed it but it was interesting to experience once

hawowanlawow posted:I legitimately like dune and read and enjoyed the books beforehand I didn't enjoy it as a sci-fi film, but it's hard to really ding it when contextualized. It was certainly ambitious as hell and really tried to do right by the source material. It was just clearly too early for it. The studio was clearly trying to make it commercially marketable at the time, and it shows. It would have been amazing if Lynch had been able to do it like Peter Jackson's did the Lord of the Rings trilogy, but the studio wanted it to be a contemporary blockbuster like Star Wars.

Eh like the movie aggressively misses the point of the book imo. It's fun because it's got occasionally some good acting, the set design is top notch, and Lynch gets to be Lynch on occasion; but it's not a good Dune adaptation

(the only problem with recommending it is that you need to watch many hours of a big robot anime show to get there, and while I loved it, some parts of it have not aged great and the last third or so was clearly directed by someone who was deeply depressed. in a way, not unlike having to watch many hours of original twin peaks, including some really dodgy season 2 bits, before enjoying the good stuff in FWWM and the Return)

I would say that Denis Villeneuve's movie Enemy felt a bit Lynchian. I liked it quite a lot. And of course Donnie Darko is some sort of "Lynch for teens" movie. Haven't seen it in ages, though. And stay away from the director's cut, which turns a movie about mental illness into a sci fi about wormholes or whatever.

Lord of the Rings is kind of the playbook on how to turn a book into a Media Property though with endless spinoffs, reimaginings, pre- and sequels and the assorted merchandise for each. Then again looking at the Dune books...

If you’re looking for Lynch vibes then check out Lemming. It has Charlotte Gainsbourg, who is always amazing.

If you like the Twin Peaks thematic element of a person being different versions of themselves in different times/contexts/realities and also the wild visuals of episode 8, The Fountain is a good watch. Not everyone I've recommended it to has liked it but Aranofsky's schtick works for me.

Also like Lynch, the effects are more on the practical side.

I watched and loved The Fountain several times when I was much younger, now some years later after going through some of the stuff that we all do as life goes on, it's a much tougher watch. The emotions it stirs up are hard to deal with so I don't find myself wanting to watch it, but I think that's nothing but a compliment to the film, that it has that type of affect.

David Byrne’s “True Stories” has wholesome Lynch vibes a lot of the time (and wholesome Gummo vibes, actually)

The Reflecting Skin is probably the most non Lynch thing I've seen that def had a similar feel. The guy who recommended it to me way back sold it by saying it's like if Blue Velvet were a coming of age movie, and yeah, that tracks.
