Message: [QUOTE="vitad00d, post: 41245, member: 73711"] This resonates with me. Over the years, I've observed a lot of reflexive David Lynch hate, mostly because to a certain kind of person, he represents a "baby's first art movie"/entry level cinephile symbol. Basically, the inevitable backlash to his level of success and cultural penetration. But the guy undoubtedly was an iconoclast, who followed his extremely differentiated muses without unhealthy regard for shifts in public taste. And to make work that has the triumvirate achievement of being (1) artistically uncompromised; (2) personal, in the sense of representing original sensibilities; [I]and[/I] (3) able to reach a mass audience––that, to me, is like the crown jewel achievement of a public facing artist, and he managed to pull it off. He'll be missed. [/QUOTE]
