Cinema has lost a great man today. While news David Lynch Death still feels more unreal than anything the director has created, and we mourn the loss along with the rest of the filmmakers and actors who had the honor of existing during the Lynchian era. And we pour a cup of Damn nice coffee For him.
Contemporary cinema giant and fellow modern-day movie star Steven Spielberg shared a statement with diverse On the devastating loss of his counterpart: “I loved David’s films. Blue Velvet, Mulholland Driveand Elephant man Spielberg remembers defining him as a unique visionary who directed films that felt like they were handcrafted. “I met David when he played John Ford Fabelmans. Here was one of my heroes – David Lynch playing one of my heroes. It was surreal and looked like a scene from one of David’s own movies. The world will miss such an original and unique voice. His films have truly stood the test of time and always will.
Longtime friend and collaborator Kyle MacLachlan praised Lynch On Instagram: “Forty-two years ago, for reasons beyond my understanding, David Lynch brought me out of obscurity to star in his first and last big-budget film. Clearly he saw something in me that I didn’t even recognize. I owe my entire career, my life really, to his vision.”
What I saw in him was a mysterious, intuitive man with a creative ocean bursting within him. He was in touch with something that the rest of us wish we had access to.
Our friendship blossomed Blue velvet And then Twin Peaks I have always found him to be the most lively person I have ever met.
David was in tune with the universe and his imagination on a level that seemed to be the best version of man. He was not interested in answers because he realized that questions are the motivation that makes us who we are. They are our breath.
While the world lost an amazing artist, I lost a dear friend who imagined a future for me and allowed me to travel worlds I could never have imagined on my own.
I can see him now, standing up to greet me in his backyard, with a warm smile and a big hug and a Great Plains voice. We would talk about coffee, the joy of the unexpected, the beauty of the world, and laugh.
His love for me and my love for him came from the cosmic destiny of two people who saw the best things in each other.
I will miss him more than the limits of my language can say and my heart can bear. My world is fuller because I knew him and even emptier now that he’s gone.
David, I will forever be changed, forever yours. Thank you for everything.”
Actor Nicolas Cage participated Delivery time“He was brave, brilliant, a maverick with a delightful sense of humour,” Cage continued, “I’ve never had more fun on a movie set than working with David Lynch. He will always be pure gold.”

David Lynch said that filmmaking should be fun and exhilarating. Of course it can be hard work. Of course the work itself can include all kinds of pain and painful truth. But the act of creation itself should be filled with joy. I think about that all the time.
