RIP. I appreciated his artistic integrity and willingness to take risks.

Side note, David Foster Wallace's essay on Lynch filming Lost Highway is great. As is his interview with Charlie Rose where he talks about writing that essay and the impact of Blue Velvet(starts at 4:50 but the whole thing is worth watching). Here's Lynch's interview with Rose that he referenced.

We knew he was in bad health when he announced his retirement 5 months back due to being house ridden with emphysema but I didn't think this day would come so quickly. 😭 RIP to one of the GOATs
