Man, I agree with Rocco’s sentiments on this, I’m 28 and I used to go to my grandmas house after school everyday in elementary and middle school, and she had everything taped, and i always wanted to watch The Elephant Man, and i too thought it was a much older movie, and had no idea it was Lynch at the time. But I still hold those profound memories in my heart of the message about kindness in my heart and just how wholesome of a flick this really is! At its core, it truly makes you grateful for your blessings and how much you can appreciate just being alive and showing compassion to those around you, no matter what, seriously fantastic episode you guys!

That was a beautiful and sincere conversation. Thank-you.

Great episode but I have a slightly different interpretation on the ending. SPOILERS AHEAD: Perhaps its the pessimist in me, but my take on the ending is that John feels as disconnected as ever when he received a standing ovation. I know the consensus is that this is an uplifting moment in the film, that he's being praised rather than being grimaced at. However, he's receiving applause because he's so different from everybody. He knowingly lays on his side in order to be like everyone else even more. His desire to just be normal trumps his desire to live. Maybe I missed the boat on the tone during the conclusion, but that's my downer of an interpretation. If you watch the season 2 episode of South Park called "Conjoined Fetus Lady," that summarizes this point a bit further.

I’d love to see you guys discuss more David Lynch stuff! Mulholland Drive would be wild
