David Lynch: The Idea Dictates Everything (2006) 

What the hell?! You sat on this for 15 years?! Thanks for sharing this wonderful interview!

this is like the best lynch interview I've ever seen

It's so great to have an interview at such great length from the Inland Empire period. Thank you for this.

who else watching this on their phone

Thank you, Stuart, for the best interview with David I have ever seen. It felt like the interview itself had a life, like the negative space in the room became filled with gentleness, open-ness, fresh curiosity, that drew other things out into life. The past felt alive. Not a seance. Looking for the word. It’s like the Ideas from those past projects came into the room to continue being seen and expanded and appreciated in new ways that weren’t possible before. I don’t know how to say it. Lovely. Thank you.

Gosh when he says “it hurt it. It hurt it” about Dune … such genuine sadness all these years later

I highly recommend Lynch's autobiography ROOM TO DREAM, particularly the audio version read by Lynch.

Fantastic to hear this man talk so much about his work! As the golfer Gary Player said “the more I practice the luckier I get”. Fate plays a part because he earns it.

The hug at the end got me! Thank you 💙

I respect your want, in hindsight, to approach Lynch with more inquisitiveness. I must say, though, I loved the rapport between the two of you. Great work.

I knew Mel Brooks was the producer and I heard that after seeing Eraserhead he said to Lynch `You're a madman, I love it!`. The Elephant man is still one of my favorite Lynch movies. I remember seeing a trailer of some kind on television as a kid and wanting to see that film, thinking it was an old movie. Getting into Lynch movies after seeing a screening of Eraserhead I discovered The Elephant Man and realized it was the same movie I wanted to see as a kid.

Thank you for this interview! Will have to say I love the character of David Lynch way more than any of his films. And that right hand of his has a life of its own, lol.

David is pure art, genius and human being. He and his works has so much impact in my life it's crazy

Brilliant video. Immense dedication. Thanks for this.

Thank you greatly for uploading this.

Beautiful interview! Caught myself getting emotional a good amount of times. Thank you for sharing

this was so enjoyable, thank you

Thank you for this great interview! I could listen to Mr. Lynch talk all day

Thank you for this magnificent interview with Lynch. It was a very nice balance of things, and I know some stories/answers here will really stick with me. Impactful indeed, and with a beautiful ending. I would also give him a big hug if I ever get the chance :) Thank you again!

Thanks for these Stuart

Among the very best interviews I've ever seen with Lynch. Thank you!

love this, thanks for uploading

The way he moves his hands and fingers corresponds to some kind of "intuition" going on in his mind.

Don't worry, David Lynch, we all love you and we know that you could have given us a better version of 'Dune'.

His eyes break space and time, almost like looking into another dimension and, with his hands, tries to illustrate what he’s seeing. For us!

The part about creating reverb through AC ducts is great.

Great atmosphere in that room

Thanks for the post.

Great!

6:06 - I'd love to see this!

My new trauma will be how would return of the jedi would be if he was in it 😢😢😢😢

This was a Hitchcock-ian style interview and vibes.

Wow this reminded me of seeing The Alphabet for the first time. I was powerfully affected. Basically my introduction to lynch

So Bill Pulman's character in Lost Highway really did kill his wife?!? He just didn't remeber doing it?!

Squirrels? Marvel's Squirrel Girl could be David Lynch's next project. He'd be perfect for adapting that comic book.

Meow.
