Celebrities jackets

Mulholland Drive and Inland Empire. Everything else is meaningless and irrelevant.

There's a reason why David Lynch had Theroux star in two of his movies. He's absolutely brilliant in both. Lynch has a way of making good actors brilliant.
I mean, Amanda Seyfried. I must have seen her in bunch of movies before Twin Peaks, and I recall seeing her in something whatever since. Other than the fact that she's extremely pretty, I literally didn't notice her before or gave any of her roles a second thought. Lynch puts her in Twin Peaks though and suddenly I can't believe the kind of sheer, raw talent this actress has. That car scene... Man.

I'm a Lynch fan and really liked Mulholland Drive. I don't remember him so I'll have to watch it again.

I was not a huge fan of the latest Twin Peaks but it was still better than no Twin Peaks at all so I took what I could get.

Obviously none of you have seen him in The Leftovers tv show...by and large one of the greatest television shows out there IMO.

I tried to watch twin peaks on Netflix recently. It was great in 1990 when I was a teenager. For me the show did not age well. Seemed extremely corny as an adult. I couldn’t bear to watch it. Didn’t even make it to the squeaking/dancing midget episode. For me David Lynch is only good for one thing. Blue Velvet. Maybe Wild at Heart too. I mean, that snakeskin jacket and all.

I never got through Twin Peaks the first time but I hear you. Lynch's kitsch surrealist style is polarizing. He is either an inspired genius or a self-indulgent tosser, depending on your taste. I personally go with the latter but you're right about Blue Velvet. It's pretty nasty but it holds up today.

There are moments in BV that still, after seeing it God knows how many times, make me incredibly uncomfortable.

Was in college when BV was released. I had no prior experience with Lynch and had no idea what to expect. I took this super hot coed to the movie on our first date -- first and last date -- she was horrified and never spoke to me again.

The third season, new one is absolute perfection. Literally no bad episode. I mean, it's hard to even imagine what a bad episode would be like... But for me, the finale transcends... Everything.

All TV and cinema is subjective........but you are objectively wrong lol

The third season is a terrible terrible mess that makes absolutely no sense, there is no way in Hell Lynch had any plan or coherent story he was trying to tell.

It’s all a huge joke on cinemaphiles claiming it a masterpiece when it is clearly nonsense.

Right, that’s it. I withdraw any nice comments I have ever made about your style or jackets and I declare you my arch-enemy from now on.

You know nothing, Protein Nerd.

But seriously, watch Lynch talking about how you gotta watch the series with earphones. He did most the sound fx and all the editing himself and there's a lot of clues that are equally important as visuals to the plot of the show. It makes sense, to some extent (and it's not that deep or meaningful, either), it just isn't in plain sight as I dunno... drama of the Game of Thrones.

But even as a collection of short, unrelated vignettes, it still is a masterpiece in its own right. I never actually went out of my way trying to figure everything that happens and was lost most of the time but regardless, I still immensely enjoyed every second of it. It is simply an experience. Lynch is a master at his craft. That's what its all about.

Im a simple man, when it comes to horror i just go watch john carpenter's or dario argento's.

I think you've hit on it - incoherence and indiscriminate symbolism is what some artists reduce themselves to if they are trying to look profound. It often gets them a following.

Well as a genre horror is best when it's not pseudo-intellectual so that's probably the right choice. But I don't think we've included Lynch as a horror director - his stuff is more about the uncanny and the macabre and his works are generally moral fables.

Incidentally Frank Booth in BV wears a leather blazer and it helps make him even more sinister.

There's (either) a vintage cafe racer or a classically styled Perfecto in everything Lynch did. Someone always wears one. Except in Dune. I think.

In Twin peaks, Hank and Bobby and their leather cross-zip jackets immediately come to mind.

And the jacket that for many (me) started it all - James' Sears cross zip.

Ben knows how to pull off a jacket!

He just looks like some guy down the street to me.

Same here.

Also what's up with Starbucks and americans? It's everywhere and it's not like their coffee is any good or cheap.

 

[Seb Lucas]

I wouldn't call it coffee.

That’s one of the things I like about this pic....he isn’t “trying”. It’s normal gear that fits well and looks good.
