I'm seeing a lot of posts mourning the death of David Lynch. It's made me want to learn what it is about his work that folks here clearly love so much.
As someone who has never seen anything by David Lynch, where should I start?

I have no idea who he is and never heard of any of his movies
Check IMDb. It will list his entire career from acting to directing, awards etc.
Frankly I’m with you. Never heard of him.

"I started Transcendental Meditation® in 1973 and have not missed a single meditation ever since. Twice a day, every day. It has given me effortless access to unlimited reserves of energy, creativity and happiness deep within. This level of life is sometimes called “pure consciousness”—it is a treasury. And this level of life is deep within us all.
But I had no idea how powerful and profound this technique could be until I saw firsthand how it was being practiced by veterans who suffer the living hell of post-traumatic stress and women and girls who are survivors of terrible violence.
TM is, in a word, life changing for the good.
In 2005, we started the David Lynch Foundation for Consciousness-Based Education and World Peace to ensure that every child anywhere in the world who wanted to learn to meditate could do so. Now, the Foundation is actively teaching TM to adults and children in countries everywhere.
How are we able to do it? Because of the generosity of foundations and philanthropists and everyday people who want to ease the suffering of others—and who want to help create a better world.
If you don’t already meditate, take my advice: Start. It will be the best decision you ever make."
Blue Velvet with Dennis Hopper and EraserHead are oldies but goodies...
Oh man, what an awesome guy!
TM is cult multi level cult scam.
Meditation works though.
I didnt even know he made movies I knew him as an investor.
They are not the typical movie formula, worth a sampling for sure!
