David Lynch - The Early Short Films

We start our dive into the deep cuts of Mark Frost's & David Lynch's careers with the early short films of David Lynch. We marvel at just how complete an aesthetic and feel Lynch was able to create seemingly right from the get-go. The music, visuals, and themes that will typify his later work were all present in their haunting fullness, right out of the gate. We also discuss his ties to the art world and the larger social ethos of the 60s, 70s, and 80s, as presented in these early films, and naturally draw some comparisons with Twin Peaks and The Return as well. All of the works mentioned here are available on YouTube: Six Figures (Men) Getting Sick Sailing with Bushnell Keeler Absurd Encounter with Fear Fictitious Anacin Commercial The Alphabet The Grandmother The Amputee  Watch along with us and enjoy!
