Have you seen Gene Hackman on the Actor’s Studio? At 3:15 he recalls the day his Father abandoned the family. It gives a real sense of where his signature mood swing began.

Loved revisiting this interview again. I cannot find Angela Carter’s writing on Lynch anywhere tho. What was the source for her dismissal of his female characters? Curious to read more.

The remaster was approved by Lynch, which is all we need to know.

My hope would be it becomes a museum / archive that the public can visit Paisley Park-style - it consists of 3 buildings including a recording studio, editing suites & a deck where he painted. However, the family live there so unclear if they’ll opt to do this. But it definitely needs preserving.

Love Szamanka to get the @filmsradiance.bsky.social treatment. The Mondo Vision release was some time ago and it’s still not made it to BR. Here’s to excavating ancient bones in the hope it happens.

Then again, his car was called ‘The Beast’.

Also, there is no such thing as “fun for all the family”.

Re-read the book too. Incredible energy and the invention of Nadsat is a masterstroke.

‘Green for Danger’ (1946)

The great Bertrand Mandico & Elina Löwensohn (who has a star turn as a dog/human filmmaker in the movie), revealing a few of the film’s secrets at the ICA screening.

Latest Apple OS update cooked my hard drive and i lost my entire system. Apple told me this is always a risk when updating on a ‘vintage machine’. I paid £4k for it in 2019.

Tho for me the big wrong-turn he made was not making a full LP with Pat Metheny. Would love a whole LP as great as ‘This Is Not America’.

I guess he eventually made that LP with ‘Blackstar’.
