Fantastic essay. I've been obsessed with Lynch officially for the past four years. The first film of his I ever saw was A Straight Story when I was 11. Then the Elephant Man and Peaks in high school. I went in over my head in everything Lynch back in 2018 and learned the technique of TM. His work has affected my life in so many ways. I think you touched on the key points that make life Lynchian. There are so many corridors to his art and his approach to film that it's almost a sin to try and sum it up, but I think your essay certainly opened the box and left it open for everyone to explore the way in which David's art can directly affect them on an emotional and spiritual level. Continue this great work!
