There are so few words, man. A boundless source of curiosity & imagination. Has any artist influenced me more? I had planned to revisit Lynch’s work this year, viewing it through a new lens of grief, and now his passing casts a shadow over that too. A true life of art.

Stoker’s Dracula will always have a special place in my heart, and #Nosferatu was exactly the kind of lavish nightmare I had hoped for. Perhaps a little safer than I expected, but there’s no denying the precision of Eggers’ vision!

(Delayed post due to lurgy…) It was such a treat to attend the London premiere of #Nosferatu with @mikemuncer.bsky.social this week ⚰️ Eggers’ most accessible film to date; steeped in gothic beauty and psychosexual trauma. Lily-Rose Depp was a pleasant surprise!
