10/10
ESSENTIAL for Lynch fans and creative artistic souls

Warning: Spoilers
I have to give this a 10 - big Lynch fan here and since season 3 of Twin Peaks has ended my admiration for his work his sky rocketed! This wonderful documentary which I believe was funded with a Kickstarter campaign gives you an essential look into David's childhood, creative process and glimpses of how he thinks. He really does invite you into his brain - personally I found the documentary to be raw, edgy and quite disturbing too. Lynch can unease you with his stories - just the way he talks and the stories - you are given a gift albeit a strange one with a touch of humour and a just a little light - Mr Lynch lives a fascinating life.

As he talks about his upbringing - people surrounding him who guided and helped him - he talks so fondly of his early childhood, family, his brush with the dark side and most importantly (for me) his move to Philadelphia which he initially found so dark, depressing - yet this brought out his most creative dark side which, being a Lynch fan absolutely fascinates me.

Without Lynch receiving a grant from the American Film Institute allowing him to create Eraserhead where would he be now? Lynch ponders this and is seriously moved - you will be too.

So much more I could say about this - but leaving it there - Oh no - one more thing (doing my Columbo) -- you get to see so much of his very personal art work, and archived art work as a younger man..... and the work is breath taking.

Watch ASAP - peace all!
